A poem for my husband

When you fall but can never stay down,

When you can make anyone smile through a frown.

This is a poem about my husband.

When you can make me fall in love with you each and every day,

When you always have found a way to make me want to stay.

This is a poem about my stranger.

When you keep me guessing the next amazing thing that you will do,

When you inspire others with the strong leader that's inside of you.

This is a poem about my hero.

Everything I Need

Everything I needed,

I asked for in my prayers.

My prayers were always answered,

In many different pairs.

I asked God for some courage,

And he answered with a hum.

He gave me some dangers,

That I would overcome.

I asked God for some strength, 

And he answered with a wrong.

He gave me some difficulties,

That would make me strong.

I asked God for some patience,

And he answered with a date.

He gave me some situations,

That I was forced to wait.

I asked God for love,

And he answered with throw.

He gave me lots of people,

That I could get to know.

I received nothing that I wanted,

Only that of which I need.

My prayers have all been answered,

With only a single plead.

Trust in Him

When things aren't going your way, 

it's because God has something different to say.

When love doesn't find you when you want it to,

It's because God is still writing your love story and wants the best for you.

When you can't see through life's storms,

It's because God is wanting you to see that you are never alone when you mourn.

When you fear and worry about life's trials,

Just continue to follow in God's way through the miles.

Inspirational Encouragement for Today

How great you have it

Remind yourself today how great you have it. Count your blessings, and take a few moments to dwell on their value.

Of course you have problems, challenges, limitations and all that. You also have opportunities, possibilities, resources, relationships, and life itself.

Shift your focus away from getting what you want, and point it toward appreciating what you have. Though you certainly don’t want to become complacent, allow yourself to enjoy a bit of satisfaction and gratitude.

Appreciate the goodness that surrounds you. Consider what good and valuable use you can now make of it.

Remind yourself how great you have it. Then see all the ways to act on your good fortune.

Even in the most difficult of times, it pays to remind yourself how great you have it. From just a little bit of goodness, when you truly appreciate it, you can build a whole lot more.

God's Way

Dear God,

Twists and turns face me and leaves me stranded,

Nowhere to look except to God who never leaves me empty handed.

What we battle are our soon to be stronger versions of ourselves,

And then left with the victory that will soon be part of the stories that we tell.

God as our critic and as our faithful fan,

Always cheering us on and telling us that we always can!

Remaining hopeful and brave in trust,

And always doing the good things that we must.

Living life like its a one time ticket to God's museum of art,

Enjoying the beauty while maintaining our unique, designed parts.

God, you always see the best in me,

Even when my eyes are too blinded to see.

You sculpted me with a purpose in mind,

I want to live for you while leaving my work of love behind.

Thank you for being all that you are,

I will always wear your blessings for me like a scar.

What happens when you start your journey from a downhill battle to an uphill walk?

A smile is formed so always show Gods love when you talk. Amen!
