Connie Marcum Wong Poet Prose

Giving Thanks For 2015

How do I begin to express my gratitude
For the many blessings bestowed to us in 2015?
So many prayers were answered, that left me in awe
Of the unlimited power of the Divine and the Angels
Who have helped with every request no matter how large
Or small. They are my guiding light, always by my side.
I am most thankful that my husband was saved from
The brink of death with constant prayer and faith.
"Anything is possible with God", were my repeating
Lines to myself and others, and thankfully indeed it is!
Health is wealth and I am so thankful for that blessing.
I hold in my heart great gratitude for all my family and 
Friends who prayed for us to have Divine healing.
I hope they know the power they gifted us in prayer.
We feel very wealthy indeed to have such help in need.
I am thankful for all my poetry friends who also said
Prayers for us and encouraged us with their support
And beautiful poetry that inspired and gave us hope.
2015 ended with us both looking forward to 2016!
Mahalo (thank you) to all who have been such a blessing.
