Encouragement
Today and tomorrow
It’s all the same to me
Nothing nor anything
Means that much to me
Maybe or perhaps
This is a side of me
Or maybe and just maybe
This is the human in me
Love, I want it
And wish I had it now
But whenever, I have had it
I‘ve never made that vow
My parents have raised me
To be kind and fair and just
And somewhere in that context
In God I have learnt to trust
My faith in Jesus
Is growing slowly in strength
I am not that religious
But my faith is all I am worth
I am not that industrious
But I know to hold my own
Humility is my confidence
And still I am going strong
I am fearful about failure
And so I never try
So if ever I never accomplish
The world shan’t judge me by
And there in lies my weakness
Which now I must revoke
As a God created person
My potential I pray is unlocked
Father bless me with confidence
To love myself enough
To relinquish all this nonsense
And no longer be fearful of
Exerting my industriousness
For all the world to see
The love, joy and happiness
That you have in store for me
This is my life full of blessings
How I live it is all in me
Based on my choices and decisions
Everything is all I let it be
Nothing at all is beyond my reach
Not if it’s something that I seek
The world is given for me to receive
As long as in God I trust and believe
This is my life that God has granted me
And with Jesus forever guiding me
There just won’t be any stopping me
My life is a part of God‘s big plan
And so I shall live it the way God wants.

I love the way you walked through this poem. Your honesty and discovery of “self,” who you start out to be, who you can be in Him and your hope in God to achieve that goal. Technically, the last verse had an “extra” line in it compared to the others, but did not detract from the content although the rhythm faltered slightly. I had to read it twice because the first time round I couldn’t wait to read the next line! You captured much emotion in this piece and I enjoyed it very much. Thank you for sharing, God Bless you.
