My Country

A test has come our way We are not exempt Just looking forward to seeing a better day Hard times has fell on us all We are only hoping We can stand strong and not fall Jobs are being lost each day Bills are getting higher to pay We now have a tendency to pray Asking God to make a way Businesses are crashing down Our lives are too I only pray that my country Could see this through

Perhaps if we had prayed all along, we would already be seeing better days. This is an excellent write! We should be thankful to God even in times of strife, not just looking to Him for solutions when the worst happens. Powerful message here, Donielle! Love, Carolyn
