The Future?
By: Amy M. Kennedy

A million times a day, I ask what does the future have in store for me?
Just when I think I have the answer, I realize I'm still unclear you see
I have always felt I had a purpose on this Earth
Firm believer in we all have special plans, that start right from birth
Life is full of twists and turns, bends in the street
And just when I think maybe I got it right, I still feel like I've got two left feet
My desire is to help people, what being a social worker is all about, to help in any way I can
If a friend needs me, I am the first to reach out a helping hand
But my wanting to help people applies to strangers too, people I don't even know
I want a husband to spend my life with, to watch my children grow
I am told that I am young, and I have so much time, but is that really true?
I don't know how much time I have, do you?
People say be patient, good things come to those who wait
But I am just afraid, that my chance to do God's plan might be a little too late
Still I am hopeful, and close my eyes and pray
Waiting for an answer from up above, perhaps today will be the day
Once again I ask myself, what does my future have in store for me?
As another day goes by, I guess I'll just have to wait and see.

God does things in His time, not ours. So yes, wait and He shall lead. Good luck!

And the other will save your soul.
