Barren woman full of grief
Prayed for years to be with child
Until one day, such sweet relief,
Heaven heard looked down and smiled
And filled her womb with hope and joy!
What would it be? A girl? A boy?
How she planned and laughed and sang
Her faith renewed in God and life
Until one day the doorbell rang,
A stranger with a hidden knife.
"May I use your phone?" he said,
Before he stabbed her womb and fled,
Falling forward to the floor
She felt the blade plunge in the more
Couldn't move couldn't scream
Didn't die but lost her dream.
She never held her baby boy,
Read him stories, watched him crawl,
Instead she watched all hope and joy
Lowered in a casket small.
The heart remains an empty shell
that hopes so high then sees it die,
Today I know that feeling well...
Today you left and said goodbye.
I included this poem because I haven't forgotten the heartaches of the young. It was over a young man that at the time so broke my heart. The story poem was an effort to describe how I felt. This is the part I wanted to say to all young ladies and young men who have had their heart's crushed by a relationship that did not work out, one they so hopeed would.
Looking back, I almost laugh at how on earth I could've felt that way about him! Not to put him down, God loves him no less than me, but I cannot see now what I even liked about him.
My point is, God knows best for your life. Ideally, consult him in your choice of dates. It is natural and easy at the time in life when you are physically ready for marriage, etc., to "be in love with love" so to speak. Generally speaking, when your LQ (love quotient) is high your IQ goes down in equal degrees.
So when your heart truly breaks, please know there is a heavenly Father watching over you. Do indeed cry, feel what you feel, but with wisdom, knowing there is a far better situation awaiting you. Go with God and he will lead you to the place he would have you be. Oh wait young people on the Lord! He knows and understands your heart and needs. He made you!Follow Him, and see the wonderful plan unfold he has for you.
Love to all,
