When I Think Of Your Mercies! Poem by Gold Trybes

When I Think Of Your Mercies!



I didn't know what it meant to wait on the Lord. Had so many stumbles, couple of falls and plenty other scars. Those were times when I looked up, cried my heart and wished for short cuts. Many times, I was cut to size by the same people who I entrusted my heart to and in those days,   I would look to heaven and ask why but no answer did come other than that, I had to bear my cup. Women after women rejected me for reasons I could best conjure up. All I ever did to be wrong was being myself. Yes, the hurt shook me to my foundations but every time, something in me kept pushing, pushing, pushing for a greater glory, one I was yet to see and I was yet to experience. I didn't give up and neither did you give up on me. Today, I look around me and see all that you have blessed me with.  How far along you have brought me in spite of the stumbles that could have weighed me down. I look at the things you have done for me. A beautiful home, a beautiful wife, a beautiful daughter and a good job. How did I ever curry your favor? How did I ever get so much from you in spite of my unfaithfulness and unrighteousness. I am forever greatful oh Lord. You who have brought me from nothingness to something. You who have closed the mouths of my enemies and condemned them to their wickedness. How can I pay for all that you are doing in my life and family? I just wanted to say thank you
