God Doesn't Make Mistakes


God doesn’t make mistakes.

My mind is convinced...

My heart needs a little more time.

He is infinite and all wise

All knowing and sovereign

I dare not question His plan

But this time…

This one time…

I think He got it wrong.

For all intents and purposes

I know He knows best.

I know His plans are greater than my plans

And His thoughts greater than my thoughts

His ways are not my ways

But perhaps this time…

This one time…

Maybe He got it wrong?

I believe in the power of the Almighty.

There is no one like Him.

He the great Jehovah

The mighty God

The One who sits high

And looks low.

He who rules and super-rules the universe.

The one who created this earth from nothing

Breathed the breath of life into man

Separates the night from the day.

Maybe just maybe

This one time

He got it wrong.

The wind and rain obey Him!

The thunder rolls at the sound of his voice!

The world cradled in the palm of his hand!

The cattle on a thousand hills belong to Him!

All honor and praise belong to Him!

And Him alone!

Could it be true?

How can it not be true?

God doesn’t make mistakes.

My mind is convinced.

My heart…needs a little more time.

We Do Know...

So many times when someone dies (particularly expectantly) you here someone say, "You never know" or "You just never know"... but the truth is we do! We do know that tomorrow is not promised, that life can change in a blink of an eye. We know that the last time you see someone may be the last time. We know life is short. We know people can leave us at any moment. We do know...we just forget...

Hi Honey...

I’m so glad you’re home! So glad to see your face! Can’t wait for your hugs I've been waiting to greet you all day To salute you with my kiss! Hmmm… Everything seems all right with the world now. 2015 ®

For Once...

For once, I would like to look temptation in her eyes and say "I've defeated you".   For once, just once, at the end of the day, I would like to exhale and know I stayed strong . For once, I would like to stand on the edge of the cliff, look over, and not leap. For once, I would like to embrace my inner win . For once, I don't want to end my day with regret. For once, I want to reach the finish line. For once, I want to see to the end of the test. For once, I want to succeed. For once, I want to think it, see it, then accomplish it. For once, I want to say 'I use to'. For once, I want to 'remember when'. For once, I'd like to reflect back on who I was...and see the difference in who I am   For once, I don't want to wish or hope or wonder , For once, I just want to be .
