Poem - Trust in the Lord

The wind's not always at our back,
The sky is not always blue.
Sometimes we crave the things we lack,
And don't know what to do.

Sometimes life's an uphill ride,
With mountains we must climb.
At times the river's deep and wide,
And crossing takes some time.

No one said that life is easy,
There are no guarantees.
So Trust in the Lord continually,
On calm or stormy seas.

The challenges we face today,
Prepares us for tomorrow.
For faith takes our fears away,
And peace replaces sorrow.

Poem - Midnight Times

In the midnight times of my life
When everything seems so wrong
Just help me to remember
That Your name will bring a song.

For when I whisper "Jesus"
My darkness turns to day,
I see You here beside me
I can hear the words You say.

You tell me that You love me
That Your son died to set me free,
That I'd never be alone
Because You are here with me.

Lord, help me to remember
My answer is in Your hands
When all else fails, You'll be here
And Your strength will help me stand.

Dolly Parton - Love Is Like A Butterfly - Live




Every time I listen to this song, it makes me think of my partner and how they treat me like a butterfly. If you listen to the words of this song, you will be happy forever if you have someone who loves you like the words to this song. I found God brought me to my partner to give me a wonderful life. He made me a Catholic Convert. I also have so many blessings that God has given me. Especially the people he gave me in my new life in America. 

Just think about the family you have, the friends and people in your life. If you consider them blessings, that is due to God. You are given a family. You get the chance to pick your friends. So I'd pick them wisely. God put you on this earth for a reason. You are here for a purpose. What is that purpose? You need to find that out. Ask God in prayer, he answers all prayers.
