"god Knows Best"

We sometimes sit and pray to the sky....
Asking God for his help at many times...

Our questions always heard and taken in...
Just not the right answers now and then...

We are taught as a child to stick with our faith...
To be kind and honest and love not hate...

Tested at times through this puzzle of days....
We will all rise to the top and survive in his ways...

Very uplifting indeed-- yup our prayers sometimes don't seem to be answered? All in God's time and I think that the answers may not be as obvious, but they do get answered in one way or another-- wonderful couplet, Michael :) -- nikko :)
