Arriving At Peace

After so many years of hard knocks
The bruises only I can see
I can finally feel a sense of tranquility
And know I'm living the life God envisioned just for me.
He didn't promise every day would be blissful
Not did he say I wouldn't shed a tear
However what God did promise to me
That peace in his bosom
To him would keep me near.
I have found the peace I searched for
It may not last for long
Therefore I have to enjoy every moment of it
I know it's God who keeps me strong!
