Out of the ordinary, wanted to write a poem instead of an article. Here it goes…..

On days like these

My heart is not in peace

Worry and anxiety fills my soul

Despair runs through my whole

Life is mundane

Thoughts run in a chain

When will these days end?

When will the happy days trend?

 

Many are the perceptions

So are the conceptions

Is it worth the worry?

Is my soul wanting an answer in hurry!

 

As I looked aside,

My eyes opened wide

I saw the poor and the helpless

Their troubles were endless

 

Battered by pain

Bodies were stained

Tears of sorrow

Filled their marrow

 

As I pondered on their fate

I wondered about my state

Realization struck me

A revelation hit me

 

Gratitude filled my heart

As I wrote on the chart

That God is great

For he has kept me safe.

 

Yet the thoughts of the past

Kept running aghast

And the plans of my future

Is it mine to lecture?

 

It belonged to the creator

He is the narrator

An almighty author

The absolute finisher!

 

So I know that my redeemer lives

My life when he rebuilds

I shall go out in joy

Dance and rejoice

 

In the meantime,

In thankfulness I chime

Great is thy faithfulness!

Am overflowing in your blessedness!
