Praying God’s will
Is easy enough
When it involves simple goals
And everyday stuff
Like a good grade at school
Or a raise at work
Even sometimes for others
Who may act like a jerk!
But when it comes to a life,
The rubber meets the road.
We always want healing
As the end to a load.
But God’s ways aren’t ours,
So do we pray for what’s best
Or continue selfish prayers
That put God to the test?
I know the answer
But the older I get
The more real it becomes
And the more I fret.
It’s hard to let go
And accept God’s plan
But that’s why He’s God
And we’re only man!
His plan will prevail,
We continue the race
Trusting God as our source
As we rest in His grace.
This is a re-post from a while back, a poem I wrote in about 5 minutes, but I just needed to post it again as a reminder to myself as much as anything.

Wow, that is good. I need to print that out and keep it in my Bible.
Dianne,
I swear you can write the best poems in like 15 seconds!!! You should consider publishing.
This is awesome and a reminder we all could use every day.

Dianne~ You have no idea of how much I needed those very words for what I've been going through. And the fact that wrote them yourself makes them all that much sweeter. Thank you. You are such a blessing to so many.
Okay, somehow I missed the fact that you WROTE this!!! Dianne! That is absolutely amazing. I didn't know you were a poet! Now, instead I will ASK, may I print this out and keep it in my Bible? I'll put your name on it, so in case I die and they look through my Bible, they won't think I wrote it, ha, ha!!!
