The Shaping Tools

The Shaping Tools 
                                                    By Dawne Zacharias

Who are you today?
Was Heavenly Father there with you?
What were His shaping tools?
The challenges you worked with day to day?
What were you given in life to learn from?
That you suffered but somehow pulled through
What did you decide about you?
That shaped who you are,
as you grew?
We have one life to live
Though perfect it may not have been
But the lessons learned have given you a grin.
You chose life to begin.

Every person I have met has been a part of His shaping tools for me, Dawne.
