My Life Is In His Hands

My Life is in His Hands

There are times in my walk with God-
I don’t always understand.
But I have this reasurance 
my life is in His hands.

I don’t always know the direction or 
which way I am to go.
But I do know one thing-
the Lord is in control.

Sometimes it seems so dim and
I can’t see my way.
It’s during these dark times
I fall down on my knees and pray.

Then there are those moments when
I feel like I am only marking time.
He brings me words of comfort
that He is still on the line.

My life is in His hands even though
I don’t always know the plan.
He is my Lord and Savior and
I know He understands!

Mary , you expressed your love for God and His for you perfectly. I am so thrilled to see you writing in an upswing tempo. That lets me know you are having better days. It is so great that God never changes, He always has His loving arm around us, even when we try to pull away. God Bless. Ron
