WHEN THE TIME IS RIGHT

WHEN THE TIME IS RIGHT

 

As I sit tonight,

As I try to write,

There is a stillness to be found,

Then softly spoken words did sound.

The voice I heard

Then spoke this word,

“For every time there is a season,

For every rhyme there is a reason.”

I bowed my head,

This prayer I said,

Thank You, Lord, above

For Your perfect love,

Your leading my way

Each and ev’ry day.

Thank You for tonight,

For Your words are right.

I will be at my best

As I lay in Your rest.

Reflection:  I wanted to write another poem.  I haven’t written much lately.  I had the title for the poem a few days before.  But, after praying there were no words.  Then 2 lines came followed by the rest of the poem.  All in God’s time.
