We Appreciate You

Chosen by God to carry His Word;
Maybe running at first, eventually His Voice you heard.
It was a task that you felt might have been hard;
There was no need to worry, you were equipped by God.

A woman of God with great character, principles and power,
A woman chosen by God for this day and this hour.
To speak to a people with a stout heart and stiff neck,
To speak a Word from God to put them in check.

There are so many people, all with different needs,
Some even brought pain and caused the Shepherdess's heart to bleed.
But many are so grateful for the firm stand you took,
As you delivered the Word straight from the Holy Book.

We appreciate you and the compassion you reflect,
That often times to say "Thank You" we seem to neglect.
Thank you, thank you, and thank God above,
For sending us a blessing filled with compassion and so much love.
