Restoration

some people think life's a game
hurting others over and over again
I came from a broken family
I came from a broken home
and someties I  was locked out on the streets to roam,
the brokeness in my childhood caused insecurities and brokeness in my own adult life
But  Lord when  I completley gave my life to you I was finaly free from all the pain and strife,
after 30 years I was complete and whole again
 even through my most troubled times you loved me just the same, 
Lord I carn't thank you enough for giving a new life to me and my family
words Just carn't describe how much you we do adore
and through your goodness our lives you did restore,
Lord you are more precious and more valuable than any earthly thing
you're the only one who makes our heart sing,
I am sorry for the times I may of been a litle bit defiant
I am sorry for the times I may of been self reliant
i am sorry for the times I may not of been the best that i could be
and Lord i'll be forever thankful that through your Grace and Compassion
that you restored me.

In his kindness  God called you to share in his eternal Glory by means of Jesus Christ. So 
after you have suffered a little while , he will restore, support, and strengthen you and he will 
place you on a firm foundation. all power to him forevr Amen. 1 peter 5 verses 10 and 11.

when people shatter our lives and our world comes crashing down God never fails to pick us 
back up and puts our pieces back together, even stronger than we were before, God gives 
every one freedom of choice it's not his fault when people choose to hurt us, he Just loves us 
and catches us when we fall. God loves us with an everlasting love, never will he leave us 
never will he forsake us, my life was broken apart more than once but I  thank the  Lord 
that  he  restored my life and  made me the person I am today. Amen

can't believe you have no comments on this one. a very good message and so true. when we give our life over the Jesus and let Him control us, things are much better. troubles will still come as well as heartache, but we can deal with it a lot better. thank you for reading my poem and for your comment and i hope you get a dog soon, they are such a friend. i have two of them now and life would be so empty without them.
