Life, love, health, happiness, family, friends
These are some of the good gifts we receive
Our Precious Heavenly Father is all knowing
And these things come from Him as we need them
Why then, do we try to second guess God
Do we think that possibly we are as God
Knowing exactly what is good for us
And in what time we should receive these gifts
Can we not ever just be quiet and listen
Waiting patiently for that still small sound
His voice is so audible if we'd just listen for it
And his gifts superseding anything we could ever imagine
Patience is one special gift He allows us
We open this one carefully, taking our time
For if we rush head first, nothing can be gained
And the gift He bestows, lost in the confusion
Life is precious and we need to slow down
Savoring each moment as if it is our last
We should rock our children and love our aging parents
We should trust in this great and mighty God we serve
But as we wait for our next gift to arrive
Will we recognize it when it finally does comes
Or just let it slip away as we'd done so often in our past
Will we ever learn to be still and listen for His word
"Be still and know I am God"
