Be Blessed Today

I’m blessed because I know today
That miracles are on their way
From God each time I kneel and pray
No matter when or time of day.

I’m blessed because I know somehow
The thorns of shame that pierced His brow
Will never pierce me but allow
His Love to calm and soothe me now.

I’m blessed because I know what may
So come to me will never stray
My Love for Him for His I’ll stay
And ever be …

… Be blessed today.



The above poem was written in response to my own challenge. If anyone else would like to write a poem and meet my challenge, please write a poem that begins with the first line “I’m blessed because I know today” and then introduce a first line to a poem that you would like to challenge someone else to write.

Thank you and God bless,
Lighthouse Bob
