Life



Life is great,
When I woke up in the morning and open my window,
I can just smell the coffee,
A new day as come.

Bills to pay and no food on the table,
There are four letters ,
HOPE

I just get on my knees,
Lift my head to the skyand faith rushes by,
Bam! What do you know?
Bills are paid, food is on the table,
Even though it's not what I would like.

Then when the day is done,
And I lay my head to rest,
I can sleep asure that Jesus is still watching over me.

Faith and hope
these two I take with me everyday in my purse,
Not to mention love which is right here in my HEART.
