Hey poets, how are you? I'm very concerned with plagiarism so I was just inspired by the Daily Reflections of my Living Faith subscription that I turned it into Poetry so it's not plagiarized ok, the thought wasn't mine, I was just inspired and since people doesn't have a subscription, to share the gospel I turned it into poetry so enjoy reading...

~Jac

Good and upright is the Lord
Thus He shows sinners the way
He guides the humble to justice
		He teaches the humble his way Psalm 25:8-9 

About a year ago
Life began to change
My son at College came home
For spring break

Was extended
You’ll go back after Easter
We confidently predicted
He didn’t know

Of course
No one did
No one went anywhere for nine months
That was just a small part of it

Each one of us could probably fill a book with how this has impacted us
Directly and Indirectly
I don’t know about you
But the great lesson of this time for me is echoed by the psalmist:

Humility
No, I’m not in control
I can’t predict what will happen next
Any confidence

Any hope can’t come out of my power
But what didn’t and never will change
God
Present

Guiding
Teaching
Showing me the way
God of wisdom and strength

I stand humbly before You
Open to your wisdom
Ready for Your grace
