Blessed Despite My Failings

It wasn’t so long ago I lost my heart to a man I didn’t know Now I’m heading home With five little ones in tow Now I’ve hit my fifties What a relief Looking back on the years gone by Life has not been all that kind, I cannot lie But the little ones have grown And have little one’s of their own With guidance from above We have overcome, with His love In hindsight I would have changed a few things But yet I have and will be, blessed despite my failings.

What a wonderful and touching poem on a retrospective past. Yes, indeed we make mistakes, and there is not one of us that is perfect, but His forgiveness and love prevails-- pure Grace :)
