POEM - God is Awesome

God is Awesome

I woke out of my bed today and saw the bright,

beautiful, sunshine peeping through my widows.

I heard the birds chirping sweetly in the trees

My hands could move, my feet also

All the members of my body were working

And I thought to myself love amazing

God is real

Then my mind went back to all the less

fortunate nowhere to sleep, nothing to eat

Some are crippled, some are blind,

others have lost their minds

lots of them begging, most of them dying

and then I began to thank God for his

grace and goodness unto me.

I am alive, but I could be dead,

I have a bed while others have nowhere

to lay their heads.

I can pick, choose, and refuse

others are never picked, not chosen, and always refused

and then I came to the conclusion whatever

state you find yourself in learn to be content

therewith, because there is always someone

worse off than you. So cease from crying and

complaining, stop criticising, lift your eyes up to Jesus

and start thanking and praising Him.

- Suzette Foster
