Plan

 Open mind

Warm heart

Steady hands

Strengthened legs

For the battles

I’m to face

May I 

Have faith

Persevere and trust

That it’s all

A part of

His perfect plan

way

 Lord

I don’t even

Know anymore

But this test

Is testing

My resolve

In every way

Sardines

 Let me tell you

My emotions

Have been all 

Over the place

Gratitude one minute

Bitterness the next

Sadness appears

Then joy appears

As soon as

I step one foot

Outdoors

My soul has

Been on the 

Merry go round

It’s not fun

But today

God gave me

Little blessings

Little miracles

To hold onto 

Until the desires

Of my heart

Become reality


When one of you said in a comment that God keeps blessing me, and I just don’t know it, I didn’t believe you. Now, I’m going to eat crow apparently. The level of my impatience these days is beyond quantifiable.  I’m not proud of this. I have no idea why I’m admitting this. I don’t know if I will ever know why. God is obliterating my timetable with absolute force. Everything is back to basics. I’m going back to the ABC’s of faith. And it’s not fun. I must need a refresher course. Everything is being flipped. I guess God use anything to get my attention. Who knew it would involve a conversation about the tastiest sardines while trying to find them on the shelf in Wal-Mart today.

 Let me be

As the flowers 

Of the field

Sweetens with

Each day

Good. Took Mom to Zaxby’s. Small town. Not much open. She enjoyed her salad. Told me it was the thought that counted. I guess fancy doesn’t matter sometimes.

 Mom

The one 

Who will

Still kiss

Boo boos

Tell the truth

Yet still remind

You everyday

Not to mention

Her idiosyncrasies

They will soon 

Become your own
