When God Created Me

When God created me He looked for the brown soil Must have been soil from the river side So that I can flow easily So that I can stand with rocks of ages So tears can flow easily, washing all along the way So my roots could swim, float or grow deeper Depending with the challenges He placed before me He looked for the firm soil So I wouldn't break easily Come four seasons, come swords and arrows So I could be armoured for life He carved my heart the strongest So I could love no matter what, forgive and never give up He knew He didn't have to add any artificial fertilizer He knew in me, he had placed a natural nutrient That would last a lifetime, only if I got my daily scoops from Him He, my daily bread, created by Him, like Him

This is lovely and inspiring, Njeri. Nothing artificial in your writing...it all comes natural, and your feelings are sincere. The relationship between you and Him is one which I admire! #7 // paul
