In honor of Poetry Month, here's a little something I hope you will like...
Your Ways...Not Mine
Let me not care what I have or will gain.
On the throne of my heart, I allow only You to reign.
I boast only in You, my greatest treasure.
I will put You first in my life forever!
When I'm in a hurry, Lord, slow my pace.
When I'm running ragged, gently put me back in place.
Remind me, oh, Lord, when my plans fall apart
Your ways are not mine...control the desires of my heart.
I will only be satisfied in the very end
If I can look back and say, You, God, are my friend!
