Beneath the northern stars

Sunlight piercing through the clouds
Shining down on me
God has opened up my eyes
To things I never thought I'd see.
Remembering days of long ago
And times when I was there
In places where I had to be
To pray a heartfelt prayer.
I put my faith and trust in God
Who'll never steer me wrong
He's shown me what I need to do
And given me my song.
There is a reason for this all
It isn't always clear
But remembering His reasons
Takes away my fear.
I know that I've helped oters
Who need for me to pray
For them, and they are in my thoughts
Every passing day.
God will help me through these times
The bad and also good
Until my life is figured out
And I'll be in the place I should.

Where I wrote of black and white, this is colored with gold and silver.

In going through some poetry from long ago,
I found that I was exactly where I was
supposed to be for the moment...
in order for me to get to where I am now.

Enjoyed this Elizabeth.  Keep writing...

Wranx, thank you very much! I like that.

Thank you Sunshine! Isn't it funny how things turn out?

Thank you passing shadows! This is difficult to keep in mind but it always turns out to be worth it.
