Tragedy and pain freezes the brain,
Unable to think, comprehend, reason, see,
Beyond the unrelenting shock waves,
We struggle mentally, physically,
Emotionally, medically
To relieve the deep, deep hurt
That eats at us day by day.
In anger we neglect or forget
A main part–the key to the healing process,
Taking time to deal, to pray, to grieve,
Allowing him, our Creator Lord access within
Do what He does best—walk beside
Not only to comfort, but more…
To bring healing, wholeness and peace.
