THOUGHT FOR EVERYDAY!!

Yesterday Is But A Dream
And Tomorrow Is Only A Vison:
But Today Well Lived Makes
Every Yesterday A Dream Of Happiness,
And Every Tomorrow A Vision Of Hope.
Look Well Therefore To This Day.

My husband wrote this a while back when he was at a crossroads with his spiritual outlook.

ANSWER ME GOD!

Question:

Where were you God, when I needed you the most?
When I was full of pride, and began to boast.

Where were you God, when the devil was at my heels?
When I turned to evil and drugs for my thrills.

Where were you God, when the devil filled me with sin?
And I awoke regretting when my life began?

Answer:

Silence your tongue boy; I was there before you would ask,
The pain and the evil I refuse to mask.

I walked with you side by side,
And with every drug used I would cry.

I had to let your addiction be your own conviction.

Had I not let you get burned,
There wouldn’t have been a lesson learned.

And had I wrapped you up and taken it away,
You would have not been grateful for today.
