My Poetry
Lord Jesus Became My Living Hope
I always thought that I would marry young
That was not how it had turned out
I thought that I had met the right person for me
It turns out just how wrong that I had been
When I look back, I'm thankful for what God has done
I was a mess, and I had made a huge mess out of my life
God came in, picked up the peaces and put me back together
Without Him, I was lost and I had no idea just how lost I was
He heard my cries; He answered my prayers
When I was in need of comfort, He comforted me
When I was scared, Lord Jesus was always there
He helped me to overcome all my fears of being alone
When people ask me if I'm married
And I say that I am not, they ask why
I tell them that I'm just not interested in marriage
And they always say that I should be married
I don't want to marry, and I should have to
I'm not here to please men; I'm here to please God
If God wants me to marry, He'll send me someone
That He has chosen Himself, He knows what's best
My focus is on God; I'm here to please Him and Him only
I don't care what others say or think; it's not their business
Whatever God wants me to do, I will do it with gladness
And wherever He leads me, I will follow Him
My problem was that I used to be dependent on man
And the whole time, I should have been dependent on God
At that time, I was not a follower of God; I knew He existed
I never gave a second thought to get to know Him at that time
I wish I knew then what I know now; God has always been there
And I am so thankful for all that He's done in my life
He loves me no matter what I have done,
Nothing can separate me from His love
At one time, I thought I was unlovable
God showed me that it wasn't true
And that He loves me no matter what
He'll never leave me nor forsake me
When my heart was shattered into shards
Lord Jesus, put each one back into place
He healed me from a broken heart
He is the light that shines in the darkness
When I thought that my life was over
Lord Jesus showed me it was just the beginning
That He has plans for my life to prosper
And He showed me that He will never leave me
When everyone walked out and I was alone
I was scared of not knowing what the future hold
And I was frightened of being all alone
God showed me to depend on Him
When I had lost all hope
Jesus Christ became my living hope
For when I was weak; He was strong
When I needed a friend, Jesus became my friend
When I am weak; He is strong
When I cry, He comforts me
When I feel unloved, He loves me
When I feel alone, He is right there
That was not how it had turned out
I thought that I had met the right person for me
It turns out just how wrong that I had been
When I look back, I'm thankful for what God has done
I was a mess, and I had made a huge mess out of my life
God came in, picked up the peaces and put me back together
Without Him, I was lost and I had no idea just how lost I was
He heard my cries; He answered my prayers
When I was in need of comfort, He comforted me
When I was scared, Lord Jesus was always there
He helped me to overcome all my fears of being alone
When people ask me if I'm married
And I say that I am not, they ask why
I tell them that I'm just not interested in marriage
And they always say that I should be married
I don't want to marry, and I should have to
I'm not here to please men; I'm here to please God
If God wants me to marry, He'll send me someone
That He has chosen Himself, He knows what's best
My focus is on God; I'm here to please Him and Him only
I don't care what others say or think; it's not their business

When I feel alone, He is right there
