Accidental Reasons

All in the Plan

I woke up and looked at the clock,
Then gasped as I grabbed my sock;
Hearing not and knowing I was late,
There was no time to sit and wait.

I knew that I had to move very fast,
Since it meant that I would be last;
And traffic really moves so slow,
Especially even more after a snow.

This morning happen to be worse,
Since I left home without my purse;
I called out to the Lord in His name,
Wondering why this intense shame.

Suddenly I hear a crashing sound,
That was coming from all around;
As I noticed this beam of light,
Coming from above so bright.

I was being pulled from my car,
Floating up towards the light afar;
Then realizing it was meant to be,
In the plan of God time for me.
