What Has God Done
trolaan
God placed me in a great nation...
gave me the free choice to succeed,
guaranteed my education,
groomed me as I learned to believe.
Only God could create a world
of infinite wisdom and grace,
offering His mercy unfurled
on all who put sin in its place.
Naturally He knows what is best,
no way I’m arguing with God.
Now when He puts me to the test
notwithstanding, I can applaud.
Accepting His will is my goal,
all God does is perfect and good.
Absolving sin, He grants my soul -
Adherence to do as Christ would.
FYI: The Trolaan form created by Valerie Peterson Brown, is a poem consisting of 4 quatrains. The lines in each quatrain begin with the same letter. The rhyme scheme is ABAB. The writer chooses the initial letter which starts the lines of the first stanza.
For the 2nd stanza, each line will begin with the second letter of the first word in Stanza one.
For the 3rd stanza, each line will begin with the second letter of the first word in Stanza two.
For the 4th stanza, each line will begin with the second letter of the first word in Stanza three.
