In Charge

I wrote this poem several years ago for a writing class and am sharing it again. I hope you enjoy.


In Charge Poem

If I were in charge of the world,
There would be no more hunger or pain,
People wouldn’t use others for gain,
There would be no divorce or affairs,
The world would be filled with prayers,
If I were in charge of the world.

If I were in charge of the world, 
Every child could learn,
Every father would earn,
Water will never be wasted,
Food will always be tasted,
If I were in charge of the world.

If I were in charge of the world,
The homeless would have a home,
The orphan would not be alone,
Brothels wouldn’t be here,
Every child held dear,
If I were in charge of the world.
If I were in charge of the world, 
No babies would die to abortion,
Life would not be in distortion.
There would be no murderers or thieves,
And no one would ever grieve,
If I were in charge of the world.

If I were in charge of the world,
Life would be like an adventure,
Into the world everyone venture.
Love would reign over all,
All would heed the Lord’s call,
If I were in charge of the world.

If I were in charge of the world,
I would never be in charge,
For the future is unknown and large.
God ordained the world to be
It will be perfect in eternity.
God is in charge of the world.

Where in the world!?

      

Continuing to trust God's goodness and leading in my life. It's awesome to have such an amazing Shepherd who directs our steps and our direction. So blessed.

This is pretty much amazing!

Where in the world is Lily going? :)

Have a blessed week!

Abortion, Adoption, and Steve Jobs

Abortion, Adoption, and Steve Jobs

Thought this was a cool article. It's been a question

I've asked myself multiple times. How many children

have been aborted who would have later grown up

to change the world? Have a great weekend!

God bless!

I wonder

Another video but this one is AMAZING!

So encouraged by this song.

"And it feels like there's not enough

praise inside of me. With all these words,

all my heart can sing is holy.

You are holy.

Jesus Christ, you bled your love, laid down

your self and gave me life. In naked shame

you hung and you were lifted high. Here I

lay in awe and wonder. I am afraid, for no

one's ever sacrificed and loved me this way.

So on my face I fall under your heavy grace.

Here I lay in awe and wonder."

God's love for us is so amazing and it fills me

with awe. No one has loved me as much as my

Savior. And I think that can be easy to forget.

Dwell on Christ's love for you in this day. Don't

let your heart and mind be distracted from God's

goodness to you! You are loved and cared for!

Have a blessed week!
