God Kept Me

This is a piece that I wrote in the midst of a struggle. Enjoy and Be Blessed!

 

God Kept Me
 
Distraction after distraction
Bad choice after bad choice
A series of other reasons
For me not hearing His voice
 
Determination overrules it all
But sometimes I still can’t clearly see
One thing I know for certain
Is that it’s God who is sustaining me
 
Periods of isolation
When the mind roams wild & free
I know it’s the Mighty hand of God
                                                Alone, that’s holding me
 
Tragedy continues to strike
With the critical intent to ruin
But I press on toward attaining
The dreams that I’m pursuing
 
 I can’t always feel His presence
Or the gentleness of His touch
But He only lets me go so far
And I only get bruised so much
 
So to the natural eye
It may appear that I am worry free
But I cannot take the glory
Because it’s God alone who kept me
 
IT’S GOD WHO KEPT ME

You feel him, you know him, you turn to him in your purpose of living and being set on to Life's straight path. That is what he wants us to do for him each day and every day of our lives.

I can only confirm all the other comment you have already received. I can also agree,... based on personal experience...nothing earth shattering mind...but enough to convince me.

Loved the poem.

Brice.
