Gift of Wisdom

The Lord teaches me,
To be strong in times of distress
When I’m longing for His care,
He came along and comforted me

When I’m so hapless and alone,
God imparted infinite wisdom.
For me to freely share 
Even in times of tribulation

His word will be my sword and stronghold
A refreshing fountain, flowing within my soul
To reflect on when I'm gone astray
Thank you, Lord, for this wondrous gift

Isn't it wonderful to know that in a world full of enemies and confusion there's actually someone who loves you, who is always looking at you from above and doesn't want anything for Himself, that's what God is,i people say that the concept of God is confusing, believe me the only time everything looks so clear and makes sense is when you are actually able to find God, coming towards Him can end all of your inner suffering, it was a pleasure to read this inspirational poem of yours, good luck

You know the truth of it, and have expressed it well. We are not in control here, people. You can look at a newborn baby, and realize that. Sentiments expressed wisely and well, Estela.
