Another poem from: A Mother's Heart


Poem Artwork

 


When I’m tempted now to worry

And yield to fears again,

That is when I must remember

Her heart is in Your hands.

 

You envisioned and designed her,

Crafted the Master Plan,

And though she often wanders

Her heart is in Your hands.

 

My child may run, and she may hide

Among the worlds affairs,

She may look the other way

And pretend she doesn’t care,

 

That Our Father calls to her by name

In every foreign land,

Yet in her deepest parts she knows

Her heart in His hands.

 

Her life is fragile, on display

For all the world to see

With modern apparatuses

And darn technology.

 

She thinks her plans originate

From every day’s pursuit

Of fun, and laughter, she hesitates

To winnow out the truth.

 

A target for the evil schemes

Of the one who came to kill,

Is every child of God that strays

From their Designer’s will.

 

I know his power, I know his plans

And yet, I know defeat

Awaits the enemy of God

And so...I pray, I seek

 

The heart of God, His perfect will,

And vigilant I’ll stay,

Down on my knees, in heart and soul

And every single day

 

I’ll speak her name and intercede

With Our Father God above

To keep her by His mercy

And win her with His love.

 

And come what may, of this

I’m sure, on this I’ll take my stand,

I have no need to fret or fear--for

Her heart is in His hands.

I just love this poem you created....when i read it tears just poured done as I have lost my adoptive parents that brought me up since i was a baby.....They were the most loving parents to have....

I have finally found my bio mom and now we have a connection and plenty of years to catch up on too!

In the past years leading up to my present day...I have found out that I am Metis, and I have some gifts that people don't understand.....but most of all I have leaned on our God/Creator to get me through all my troubles and tribulations! AMEN....God is good!

Take care during these troubled times with this pandemic going on in the world today......

I have seen both my girls come back to a deep faith in God and dedication to His will since I penned these words. The lesson here is...don't give up. Don't ever give up on God or on your children.

Linda, this is excellent! It touches me deeply, having survived worrisome times with some of my children. I relied heavily on knowing that God loved them even more than I did.
God bless you and your child.
Love,
Connie
