Notes About The Poem

Bathed In His Grace

There are many times
When I feel like I’m not enough
I don’t have the abilities
The will or the sincerity
To pour out on the condition
That needs my embrace
The situation that needs my touch

There are times when 
I feel like I’m just struggling
To be a little better, a little kinder
A blessing to some heart or soul
Who needs me to whisper hope
Across their soul and into their mind

There are moments when
I feel like I am simply too small
To lift the heavy burdens
That happen through my life
And need my kindness to find relief
My sincerity to find the grace
My gentleness so pain will subside

There are some days when
I can’t even find the words to pray
And I know He must read my thoughts
My faith, my heart, my soul’s belief
To gain the understanding and wisdom
To make it through the day, find a way
To reach beyond the worry and fear
To the light where God’s glory flows

There are times when I can’t see
Through the darkness that surrounds me
With disappointment, depression, despair
All the storms that shadow my soul
All the duties that reflect my sorrows
All the problems that take away my peace
And cause me to agonize and fret
Leaving the peace that God’s grace brings

Yet, there are those sweeter days,
When I know just what to say when I pray
When the words come to my heart
And flow from my thoughts, alive like a smile
Filling my day with the promise of His love
The grace to believe and hope and grow
Wise like the joy He inspires inside my soul
Giving my life the light that shines down
Replacing all the shadows with beauty and hope

It’s during those special times
When I find just the perfect moment
To whisper a prayer of faith and hope
That I find my heart is closest to His peace
Filled with warmth, grace and inspiration
Feelings free from the sorrow and pain
Free from worry and darkness, alive with love
That breathes laughter into my worst moments!
