Little Girl

by Arethia Hornsby


Dear God…
What do you want me to do?
Where are you going with me in view?
What purpose, plan, or design
Do you have for my life?
Rhyme, reason, or just much strife…

Please… fear no Strife!!!
Press on little girl
Your purpose I know
Trust in my word, and my will obey.
Don’t despair, nor do you fret
I have never left you, that is the test!

I know you are confused,
And don’t have a clue.
But trust me,
What I have for you is coming into view!

Be patient and allow my love to unfold,
Wrap around you, and tightly hold.
Bless you and keep you – that’s what I’ll do!

So when you feel alone, just stop and think
Have I ever left you when you felt so faint?
Think back quickly lest you forget.

How far I’ve bought you… My baby my child.
The parting of the waters,
So  that you could walk thru,
The rest for your soul…
I’ve given you.
Thru the wilderness, the storms and the rain
My hand, and only mine did help you sustain.

So question not
Who, what, when or where-
Trust in ME only to get you there.
Safe and whole, your journey will be…
TRUST in ME only, and You will See!
I will bless you, MY Child,
As I’ve done all your life.
I will keep you safe,

Please FEAR NO STRIFT!

THE STORM CLOUDES MAY BLOW
AND THE LIGHT MAY SEEM DIM
BUT ALWAYS KNOW
I AM

YOUR

FRIEND.
