Even then

He Is There

I know for a fact that it isn't always easy to get through the day. That sometimes there's not

enough money to buy drier sheets and ketchup, so you go crinkly and staticky for a while. That

sometimes you just crave a McDonald's Happy Meal and wish things were different.

But even then, trust.

He is there!

Or how about when you're crying out for companionship, someone to talk to, someone to smile

at. Someone to hug you. It's tough being lonely. You want to make a phone call, or send a letter

-- to just connect with someone.

But trust.

Even then

He is there.

Or worse -- the times when you've got too much company. Things to do, places to be. Tasks to

finish, people to see. Time when you crave for a solitary minute. When you just wish the roller

coaster would end, the teacup would stop spinning, the people would stop asking -- just long

enough for you to take a break.

Trust.

Even then

He is there.

And the times when you wake in the middle of the night. Everything is dark and quiet. You're

alone with just your worries, doubts, anxieties, criticisms, and deepest, darkest fears. What if..

Why didn't... How... If only... Why?

Trust.

Even then

He is there.

Or when it's time to make a choice. Very simple -- yes or no. But the what ifs are heavy and

confusing. You just don't know which one to choose, though you do know that choice could

haunt you for the rest of your life.

Trust.

Even then

He is there.

On a bad hair day; a something green stuck in your teeth day; a Mom, I hate you day; a you really should have known better day; an I just can't go on day; an I regret to inform you day; an I can't find anything to wear day; a nothing feels right day; an itchy, sneezy, runny, fevery, coughing day; a day.

Trust.

Even then

He is there!
