Iam going to start today's blog with a poem I memorized when I was still in highschool and it has got me through a lot things by putting things in perspective.
Title unknown by author unknown
One by one He took them from me
All the things I valued most
until I was empty handed
every glittering toy was lost
And I walked Earths highway in my rags in poverty
Until I heard His voice inviting, lift your empty hands to me
And I lifted my hands to Heaven and he filled them with a store
Of His own trancendent riches until they could hold no more
And then I comprehended in my stupid mind so dull,
That God could not poor riches into hands already full!
I love this poem!!! It has made me always remember what's important in life. I was given the most precious treasures a person could ask for. Six beautiful children who are healthy and are my reasons for getting up when life gets too difficult! Thank you Father and Happy Birthday!!!
