(It's been real, so I thought I would leave this poem with you. Look for me; I'll be there, adding my ripples to the currents of time. Life has not been easy for me. Nevertheless, by the grace of GOD, I, like cream, always rise to the top.)
...(in tears) "Granny, why did HE?" Listen baby, when life throws you a curved ball Sometimes it can be very hard But you have to do what you have to do And you have to take each step yard by yard
You think you have all of the answers about Everything that you're planning to do But you just don't know, you have no idea What fate has in store for you
Sometimes it can be so bad that you cannot Figure out what to do in your situation Sometimes you can be so down and out You wonder about the reason for your creation
But then you remember that the GOD of heaven In all of his ominous power Has sheltered and protected you minute by minute and hour by hour.
Then you have to be resolute And keep going on and on You have to be able to see past the storm To the sunny skies beyond.
And it always pays to remember What your grandmother told you long ago "Keep your faith in GOD baby No matter the load that you have to tow
And never forget to stay prayed up With your Bible well read Because I have been living a long time And I never have gone unclothed nor unfed."
Wait a minute baby Just a few reminders more GOD will take care of you And about that there is no maybe!
HE warmed me with the cloak of perseverance When the cold winds of doubt and fear were raging HE dazzled me with his footwork As HE stepped into my battle fray And HE always came out victorious At the end of the day.
One of these days you will look back on this And remember how HE brought you through And you will be able to talk to your children When they come complaining about HIM to you!
This poem was penned upon the realization that my Kickstarter project would not be funded. I share it to remind all that need reminding that "Faith in GOD wins the battle at the end of the day."
