I'm still learning how to blog effectively, still trying to download photos. One thing I know is, how to Glorify God with my blog. So, today I'm posting a poem I wrote and published in a book called, "Collected Whispers," published by International Library of Poetry. I wrote so many poems through Divine inspiration but for some reason, this is the one He (God) wanted, this is the one He chose. It's not Shakespearean, only me being used by Him.
Life's problems can be so cumbersome,
I'm so glad to know the Lord.
He's the strength I need to get through each day,
And eternity is my reward.
For living each day to His glory,
For devoting myself to His will,
For responding to the voice I hear,
Though it be so small and still.
There's a race that I must run,
A race that I'm determined to win.
I'm not racing against other people,
Though I'm running like the wind.
I run the race of living,
And sometimes I fall behind,
But Jesus is there to cheer me on.
He waits at the finish line.
And when I get there, oh, joy abounds
For those of us who ran,
And I'm happy to share the winning prize
With every woman and man
I'm not the only one running,
And I won't be the only one to win,
But if Jesus asks me what I think,
I don't want to run it again!
