Almost

Sometimes when our blessings Are very close and near. We decide to “throw in the towel”, As if God’s voice, we did not hear. Sometimes we are not far from, That answer that we had so long sought. And we wind up turning around, After a good fight we have fought. Sometimes our blessings are really, Just in front of us, slightly. And while in warfare if we are not careful, We will lose that blessing, most likely. A lot of times we have our minds detoured By obstacles that get in our way. And they will cause us much time wasted If not at all seeing that day A lack of faith, a lack of character, These are just a couple by name. Being too timid, lack of boldness, These two serve just the same. For us to have ran this race, That really has already been won. It would not bring any glory to the Master, To “ALMOST” have it done.
