I have always been told
that things have their time and place
I guess it just never clicked
until my eyes were opened by His grace
I went to bed in tears
after I heard the news that day
I cried out, "Why?!"
but I didn't bother to listen to what Jesus had to say
I was so involved
in my own self-pity and pain
that I couldn't hear God's voice
no matter how hard my ears did strain
But soon enough I saw
that God had a purpose for it
the pain, suffering, and blindness
were not meant in my heart to sit
Though at the time we may be blinded
and unable to see His plan
it works out surely in the end
Because with Jesus, anything can!

I hope you like it!!
God Bless and Keep Smiling

Beautiful poem. Sometimes it's only in hindsight that we see His plan for us.  Ellie

Very moving message! Filled with truth.
It is hard to see past the pain and self pity to see what it is God is trying to show us.

This is so true. I have always fet there is a reason for everything, but when a tragedy happened in my life, I just could not figure out what it's purpose was..I just had to believe that there was some reason God let this happen to us...God did not make it happen, but allowed it to come to pass.No matter how much something hurts us, we have to now, God has a plan for everything.   Take care.
