If We Only Believe

Why are we here on earth, because the Lord has something for us each to do. He has not told us what it is, but it is not to pine over lost love. It is said he never gives us more then we can handle, we just need to work at finding our way. Life can not always be peaches and cream, we must be ready to take the bad with the good. Life will not always be what we expect it to be, we must open our eyes that we may see. A person should never feel they are not needed, we need someone and someone needs us. Though it may not be the person we want it to be, someone is out there it may just be a matter of time. To grieve over a lost love one is to be expected, to go through life alone is not what anyone expects. We need only to open our eyes and believe... I am needed ...I am wanted ...by someone. Someone is out there waiting for me, a real live human Being...I just need to believe. Entry: Retread What You've Said And say it Better! Contest Sponsor: Moses 2nd Place Winner

Retaining ones belief in themselves, and the world around them, is the greatest gift we give to ourselves. You've expressed that beautifully here.

Very inciteful poem. God has purpose in everything. Satan is the black cloth that excentuates the Jewel = Christ.

great truth in the words oft here written, seek often, you will likely yes, find, other side of the coin, you'll be smitten, by a treasure to strike you deaf dumb n blind.

and faith is the key, seek till your bones are weary, never stop looking for eternity, the one is there for the seeing, does come eventually....
