Giving In To Your Higher Power

Feels like nothing has gone right in the last little while.
But I still get up everyday and Put on a smile.  
I know with the love that’s around me I’m going to get threw it. 
But everyone’s all always asking me man whats you're secret and how do you do it.
I say it’s easy cause I know that I’m  not cursed. 
It’s the path I’m supposed to be on and it’s chosen by the universe.
It new I was headed down a wrong path and needed change. 
So not single part of my life it did not rearrange 
Cause I was going crazy and off the handle had to be there for my kids and set an example. 
I wasn’t happy I was losing all my self love. 
I was meant to more that’s what I was told from my powers above. 
They said the life I was livin was way to fake. So they had to sent me to the bottom pushed me in the dirt 
even threw in a little bit of heart ache. 
There was something greater that I’m supposed to do this I now know . 
The reason I was pushed so deep in to the dirt was because how else does a seed grow 
. I was so bruised beat hurt and tender. 
I wasn’t going to fight it no more so to their guidance I did surrender. 
I’m going to miss some things quite dearly. But I know thy weren’t never meant to stay.  I can see that Now quite clearly. Now that my mind is clear I find it kinda funny. 
That I thought the most important thing to get was to make sure I had lots of money. 
But when they take everything from you and you reflect on it after. 
You see your life wasn’t trial by error but more like trial by disaster. 
The things that are important are kids parents sisters and brothers. 
So when you think your life is falling apart it’s really just unraveling it’s self for you to see its true colours.

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
