Thank God for times of Reflection The quiet times of my Life, That I may do introspection To assess my life's Joy and Strife. Too often I'm hassled and hurried Sweet flowers of life, I pass by, Then wonder why I lack contentment As endless my life seem to fly. Ev'n Jesus, at times sought quiet To be all alone and to pray, To give Him the Strength that He needed To excell in His busier days. Let me stop, and smell the roses Let me slow down and see what You've done, To bless me each day of my Journey While living here under the sun. May You be my First Thought each morning And my Last, at the end of the day, Then what occurs in the middle-- I know We can handle Okay! "Our Creativity points to a Higher Creator--we couldn't have just happened, and for what ability we may possess--to God be the glory." -dlw- |

truly inspired, this poem brings to my realization that i myself need to slow down sometimes and actually perceive his goodness around me. many times i may ask, " where are you lord? " when the truth is, i have probably overlooked him in my haste throughout the day. a pearl of thought, this poem is well written and clearly emphasizes on its theme. i have enjoyed it much. |
