Come and Get Me
God teach me something
"Never count something as yours
as you are gonna lose it"
I was so certain that this particular thing is mine
But when I came back for it
It was gone - sold
I had won it
And had told someone I will come back for it
It was gone
That was when God disclosed it to me
I had my heart set on that little thing
I could have bought it
But there was a chance I could have won it
And I did
But someone sold it by mistake
It was an orchid!
But it's a pretty one
So you say "why didn't you buy it?"
I wonder too
Maybe God is using this chance to teach me a lesson
Who knows?
But I sure won't forget this lesson
And hope He will help me remember it
They gave me another orchid
But it is not the same
I wonder if I would get over it
HA it's just an orchid!
But it's a pretty one.... with white flowers.....
