Disappointed?

Here's another really good Amy Carmichael poem...

Art thou disappointed? Come to me;
I will never be a grief to thee.

Hurt by hand thou trusted?  Come to Me;
Leaves of healing I will lay on thee.

Art thou broken? Come, My child, to Me;
I, thy Comforter, will comfort thee.

Even friends can sometimes changeful be; 
I will always be the same to thee.

I saw the beauty and the good when I read this Sunday or Monday. But today, when the disappointment was quite real, is the day it meant something to me. Thankfully my disappointment is more dream-related than person-caused, but the invitation to come was just what I needed to hear to make me take my eyes off the disappointment and look to the One who writes my story.
