+ joy +
i got this poem i found saved in my com.
wrote it quite long ago when i was quite unhappy... exam period, i think
i just edited it again with the present condition=D
here goes...
Always a smile on her face
Ever so kind
Always volunteering to help
Happiness she could find
Days passed
Months passed
The smile always seemed unwavering
But was it all a façade?
She had Jesus in her heart
In Him, joy she found
Love and kindness gained
All that worth more than a million pounds
She wasn’t smart
Wasn’t great
she was content with life
that’s what she said
now she smiles even more
a bigger smile on her face
it cheers me up more than before
but I caught a glance of her, her dejected face
all the while, trying to hide her inner self with cheerfulness
now a sight I’ve never seen before
I wonder and wonder
It still worries me to the core
Lonely, she was not
Not afraid
Not a hint of distress in her usual cheerful self
Yet i still wonder, can I be of aid?
Now I see again, the joy, the happiness
Seen even from her eyes
The love could be seen
The father’s love, present once again in her life
-end-
Sometimes I wonder…
How I become depressed sometimes
And the next moment, completely changed
In this life I’ve changed so much
Through the grace of God
How He loved and cared for me
Though worthy I am not
In times of trials and despair
He’s always been there
Patiently guiding me along the way
With His everlasting care
He’s never left me nor forsaken me
Though the many times I’ve failed Him
Since birth I’ve been thankful
And have ever been since
Yet many times I still fall
Sadness I cannot flee from
But I still put my hope in the name of the Lord
And I know there’s where my strength cometh from
i thank God for all He's done...
i just read on the topic of joy today in one my my devotion books
Joy can be found in God.
yes, he brings joy.
He is love.
in His love, you find joy, peace and much more
i can't help but exclaim, I LOVE JESUS!
im so thankful once again for all He has done in my life
ah, this post was quite an enjoyable one
God bless y'all!
