answered prayers

Missing image
so many times
I have been led
prayed for guidance
for answers

God has been my friend
when I have looked away
he opened my eyes
showed me the truth

reminded me I am worthy
of happiness and of love
revealing clarity
when I have settled for less

delivered me back
to my spirit, that is born unto him
I soar on this path
that leads me to his kingdom

faith is trusting
when life becomes burdensome
that somewhere, somehow
if we believe, we will rejoice

    Great write. God is always there wether we need him or not.

  • OMG ~~~ Michelle,
    I don't know how in the world I missed this one.
    It is the most beautiful poem, it made me drop a tears or two, but that's a good thing, not bad.
    I love this, it is one of my favorites from you.
    It's Golden, like you and that trophy up there.
    Many Blessings to you & yours always
    Love You,
    Joyce

    A beautiful prayer


    faith is trusting
    when life becomes burdensome
    that somewhere, somehow
    if we believe, we will rejoice


    I believe you will rejoice
    I admire your faith
