It’s Friday Night which means it is time for poetry in Five! The word this week is Patience (note, I went to the FMF facebook page to get the word and I guess Patience was the Tuesday word, which I didn’t notice until now. I already wrote on Patience so, my apologies fellow FMFers for having the word wrong). My 5 min. ran out about halfway through the poem today, but I was having fun with it so I continued on. Hopefully my readers have a sense of humor and will laugh at this (I love making you guys smile!), because this week’s poem is meant to be funny, satirical and a bit hyperbole.

Sometimes people want to know where my joy despite the tough stuff comes from. Why am I so perky? How do such serendipitous things find their way to me? etc. It really is because of the presence of God in my life. This is part of my testimony and I know it’s something that not everyone relates to, but I have to be authentically me. I experience little everyday miracles frequently, and I know that is because of 1. God’s love & grace and 2. My awareness of them. I am willing and open to receiving them, noticing them, hunting for them (being a blessings hunter, which you can read more about that on my website’s About page), asking God for them, thanking God for them, and making sure I … Continue Reading →
