 Through The Eyes Of A Poet...

I Am Blessed This Day!


I am blessed this day! No! That's not true!!
For I am blessed every day my whole life through!
My God is always with me, at my side,
I cannot run from Him, nor can I hide!

He gave me many things to cope with in life,
And when things got really tough, blessed me as a wife.
Brought me a man who makes my life worthwhile,
Always has a zillion hugs for me, and always a smile.

I felt my strength sapping this past year of late,
Not knowing the path to which was to be my fate.
I couldn't walk this one alone, no, not any more,
My heart was beaten and my strength on the floor.

So God brought a wonderful man to my life; which is great!
Not only is he my husband, but he's also my best mate!
He catches me when I flounder, and holds me tight,
Lets my tears flow over him all through the night.

He never shows anger, nor does he show distain,
What a wonderful man God brought me, and oh my shame!
For I get really upset at God, at times when I'm scared!
Thinking I'm abandoned, thinking He hasn't heard!

But to my shame I hang my head and I pray…
And ask for His forgiveness on this very day!
I guess I get scared of this fragile life that I lead,
And I have to admit; I wonder what's next up His sleeve?

But my God knows me well! Well, what can I say?
He above made me, and gave me the life I have this day!
And when I only see my footprints when I am in deep pain,
I have to tell myself off, and hang my head in shame!

For though He gave me health that would kill a horse,
He gave me strength, constitution and humour of course!!
And though at the moment my trials are great…
I want to acknowledge my shame, and say ‘sorry' to my mate!

‘So Dear God forgive me, for I hold my head in shame!
But please remember Lord, next time I'm sad I'll do it again!!!
Well, I can't tell a lie and say that I wont get upset with you!
And anyway dear God, know this, that to you I'll always be true!!

So thank you for the news this day, I am humble at this time,
And I'm hoping that next time, you'll also make that fine!

Even if I am a pain in the rear!!

I thank you for giving me the strength to fight on!

And I thank everyone for their prayers!
You know, the power of prayer really is great!
