MY GOD IS NO STRANGER
by Helen Steiner Rice
God is no stranger in a faraway place,
He's as close as the wind that blows cross my face,
It's true I can't see the wind as it blows
But I feel it around me and my heart surely knows
That God's mighty Hand can be felt every minute
For there is nothing on earth that God isn't in it---
The sky and the stars, the waves and the sea,
The dew on the grass, the leaves on a tree
Are constant reminders of God and His nearness,
Proclaiming His Presence with crystal-like clearness--
So, how could I think God was far, far away
When I feel Him beside me every hour of the day,
And I've plenty of reasons to know God's My Friend
And this is one Friendship that time cannot end.

All my life I have know that I am different. I have trouble with my thinking and processing information. I have trouble in keeping close friends. I am afraid of living, and I don't really know why. I am good at pretending everything is all right, by just gritting my teeth and just charging ahead and getting through the rough spots, but inside I am afraid of failure and getting critized for things I do. I am hoping someone can help me, or at least understand me.
