Reflecting

We always question why we are here and what we're to do. I think I do more than others because my sister and brother are both gone, so I question why me, why am I the only one left? In prayer, I think I found my answer.

HE wants no credit for the Dr. Bonnie series, none at all.

Reflecting
 
When you reach the pinnacle of your life, you begin to reflect.
You start wondering if all God’s expectations were close to being met.
It took me many years to figure what they were by asking God in prayer.
So I still feel I have a lot more to do, until I’m in HIS loving care.
 
I know he wanted me to write and write from my own heart.
I knew where the words came from, almost from the very start.
He wanted me to make you laugh, so your heart would have a lift.
He wanted me to inspire you, when he gave me this special gift.
 
I take no credit for what I write because the words don’t come from me.
At first, I didn’t know from whence they came, for then I could not see.
But as I kept scripting I knew these thoughts were not of my own.
And I realized God gave me a special message so I could be atoned.
 
If just one write has touched your heart, then it’s a job well done.
If just one poem made you laugh and made life joyful and fun.
Then my Lord will smile, for I wrote it out of love for HIM.
I will know I’ve pleased him by his blessings, over and over again.
 
I hope you have received the love from a heart that truly cares.
For this is what God expected of me and this is why HE shares.
 
Written by,
Bonnie May

You write so passionately, yet so deep in thought asking why. My mother was the last to remain of her four sisters and one brother. God always has a reason, even if it is not clear to us. You have touched many hearts, more than you will ever know, as your inspirational words will continue on through eternity. God bless....

Be always safe,
Karen

Dear Bonnie, I ask not where the words come from. I just sit back
and enjoy the beauty that resides in those words that spring from your heart. -gene.

We all write from our hearts and souls; but we are not whiners whenever we write something sad.

Life is filled with happiness and sorrows. One has to be lying if one only writes how happy he is all the time.

We are all directed to write from our hearts and souls, regardless of how others think of us. I would not change a bit on how I write for anyone at all!!!

Ah, you set me to thinking. A lot of my poems are off the top of my head -- plain entertainment. But, among them, the inspirational poems have been 100% written for me -- available fully written when I awoke from sleep. All I had to do was write them down, as given, and publish them. "Oh, my muse wrote this," is what we like to say. In truth, God is our muse, every day, all the time, in every way. And that makes me feel so humble, Rose, as I know it does you, too.
