God Has Always Blessed Me

God Has Always Blessed Me By Franklin Price 12/1/2015 God has always blessed me Has always shown the way Didn't say I always followed Sometimes lost from day to day Thought I knew a little better Of the places I should be Of the ways that I should travel Of the things that I should see Of what I should experience Now I better understand That what God had to offer Was a gift without demand He let me have a little rein To see what I would do But tightened up when needed For he was coming too “Watch out where you're going” More than once I heard him speak “Let me do a little steering I will take you where you seek” That's how I got to where I am Think often how I've gotten here And where in life I would have been Without my God to steer Have everything I need in life Would like to live it for awhile Won't ignore the pulling on the reins As he guides me mile to mile And when the trip is over When all is said and done We'll sit and talk of how we did Until the setting of the sun

I find this so beautiful, Franklin. God will always be at our right hand, if we want him to be with us. He offers us everything, but gives us free will to choose our path. There is a big difference between our wants and our needs. He gives us our needs if we follow him. Thank you for writing this...saving it.

Lin, I wrote this at 3:00 AM this morning. I had to do it then or it would not have happened. I think I had just a little pulling on the reins. glad you enjoyed and understood.
