Questions and Answers

I was always told Good things will come your way And for the most part This is true I say. Why does it seem As we wait and wait It's like looking for a miracle To walk through the gate. We wonder and worry And hold our breaths in hope Then if it really happend It soon becomes a joke. I look for signs And say my prayers Hoping they will be heard By the Man upstairs. All kinds of things Can take 'or your mind And cause you to leave Your Faith behind. Then when all Is said and done You accept what happens And then go on. I have accepted What I can not see And thank the Lord For helping me.

A heartwarming and uplifting poem. I think it is only human to question and doubt, but it is also good to know that there is a Higher Power that knows better. Good one Cile. Love Heidie

To everything a purpose, Cile. When we look back at our worst times, that's when we were probably our most creative, trying to survive. He is always with us. Besides, you've got a cowboy watching over you too. God Bless. Vince

God never leaves or abandons us, He doesn't always give us the answer we are wanting to hear either.It is our faith that gets us through! Loved this write, your Texas buddy, Ron
