When Times Get Too Tough!
This Is My Life
This Is My Life
Going around and being drifted by the waves of this world; getting distracted by its worries and loaded with its burdens.
From this, my soul gets disoriented. It goes here and there losing the purpose of focusing on Him.
O My Lord, quiet my soul. Tell it to be still. When times get too tough, I want to listen to the spirit of yours.
My soul is rising against me O My Lord. You have seen how much I long for you; I long for Your presence, but my soul is rising against me like a roaring sea. I'm trying to quiet it down so I can hear You, but the world is turning it against me. Be still my soul, and submit to your creator; enjoy His presence.
Temptations and afflictions, even when numerous and hard, is your way to perfection, and are not a cause for perishment.
St. Augustine
