"God Has Been So Good To Me!!"
  by BellaMami


i don't even know where to begin...
i swore i didnt need anybody or anything
figured as long as i tried to remain in God's good grace
i had everything i needed...

but the thing is...He wanted more for me
like...a love I never fully believed could ever exist
like...a man whose spirit is so pure and strong
he would be impossible for me to resist.

but i didn't want it...or so i thought
i tried to run and STILL got caught

swept up off my tired feet into the strong arms of love
cause only You knew, Lord...I was barely maintaining

and...just because i wasn't complaining
didn't mean i was happy...

keeping my head up like the soldier that i am...
but living to only exist...

i am so glad i trusted You Lord, to know what is best

after 4 celibate years...
of patience and gratitude...my relationship with God grew..

and it wasn't until then ...that He blessed me with You

He has been making me over...im still a work in progress

but yet somehow...the road doesn't seem so...endless anymore.
i can clearly see the horizon like i have never seen before
fog has been lifted from my singular vision

and today i shout with joy at all the love i'm being given

been a mother my entire adult life...but the word wife eluded me..
maybe i didnt think i was worthy...
or God didnt think i was ready..
either way, it has finally come to be...

and i never knew i could feel this ...
complete fullness inside of me.
people even stop me in the streets
they say i have a glow

i just tell them..."if you only knew what i know..."

God has been so good to me.

See great things come to those who believe in God and wait on his time for things to happen. You are a great person and deserve to have your equal and God knew that you needed time to grow into the lady that will be ready for all he was going to bless you with. Well this is a beautiful way to let your faith grow and show your love for Christ at the same time. Bleesings and love, Chris
