Poem Artwork

Being happy

doesn’t mean

that everything

is perfect

But

as human beings

we all

strive for it

Happiness

means

we

look beyond

our

imperfections

Happiness

means

we change

our

expectations

God

didn’t promise

days

without

pain

Laughter

without

sorrow

or sun

without

rain

But God

did promise us

strength

for the day

Comfort

for the tears

and light

to guide our way

Wonderful poetry Pamilia!
Jesus gaves us His all.
We should try to follow Him un all we say and do.
Then we can expeience the joy of helping others
It makes the day beautiful and it make the devil mad.
What more of a gift do we want to receive?
What more joy can we expect than eternal happiness?

Yours in Christ,

John Michael

A sensitive and profound commentary on life and our God, who is never farther away than our prayer.

As always, you speak only truth.

With love and respect,

Oh so true of a poem. Like the way you presented it too, easy and quickly read. He guides us and we do not always get the things we want at first but things we need and he wants us to have we get. I do let him guide my way each and every day and pray too each night for what he wants in my life. Who know were he will lead us in the future. Great Great Great POEM by you. LOV ED IT!!!!!!!!!!
