Rise Up and Stand Anew

Hello All!  Four weeks have passed since I last posted.  I have been so bogged down with many things to think about, and my next move in this life.  However, I still find time to write poetry when I am inspired.  Two days ago, I awoke and I realized what I must do.  I need to enjoy the now more often and let some things happen as they do, for I cannot be the witness to everything, nor the doer of every action.  I suggest that some of you take up this philosophy at least in part if you are stressed.  You must realize that God's plan is for you to enjoy the life that He set out for you, and not worry so much about what is coming as your are in His arms forever.  Here is my inspired poem:I am good enoughfinally to make it through the roughI take what I needand I leave what I don’t Past transgressions had pulled me apartand that was only the startFor not only did others do itbut so was I included   For now, I see from atop the mountain of graceAs only I know how to destroy this hasteFor only I can see what is to be seenAnd only I can perceive my own fear Fear is not necessary except in times of dangerand only then can it make me a strangerto the world I know and embraceas only it can lacemy soul with distrust and wastethe precious time I have to taste So Bon Voyage to all that isAs I welcome myself to the worldthat is herea fated reel before my eyesthat I crank at my speed and desireFor only, in my own life, can I inquirewhat should I do and what is becoming of me Life is full of much beautyand it would be a shame to not enjoythe here and nowand worry about the laterFor only the later can comewhen life has moved one moment closer to done I shall not fear what is nextnor shall I make myself a messI cannot see too far ahead,so I can only walk forward insteadGrasping, Observing, and Deservingthrough only the will of Him![August 4th, 2011] Thanks for reading and don't let life stress you out too much.  Life is meant to be enjoyed and celebrated.  Put your faith in God, and he will guide you to wherever you need to be.
