to calm troubles

Poetry:
Whenever I am troubled,
and lost in deep despair,
I bundle all my troubles up,
and go to God in prayer...
I tell Him I am heartsick,
and lost and lonely too,
that my mind is deeply burdened,
and I don't know what to do...
But I know He stilled the tempest,
and calmed the angry sea -
And I humbly ask if in His love
He'll do the same for me...
And then I just keep quiet,
and think only thoughts of peace;
And if I abide in stillness,
my 'restless murmurings' cease.
