Whatever will be will be
Whatever will be will be,
She assured me in my stress.
Whatever will be will be,
Focus on the now and not the rest.
Let go and trust in God
Her words flowed with ease,
Let go and trust in God
Give all to him on bended knee.
You must ask before you receive,
Trust in him and you will believe.
You must ask before you receive,
In God's hands our pain shall be relieved.
Trust in God and you will see
Your worries and stress soon will leave.
Trust in God and you will see
In Gods world theres nothing you cant achieve.
Talk to God, become his friend
And peace will come to thee.
Talk to God, become his friend
Gods love never costs, it is always free.
Whatever will be will be,
She assured me in my stress.
Whatever will be will be,
Focus on the now and not the rest.

Crossroads
Walking through life experiencing all that I can
I have come across many crossroads
Some easy to negotiate and others, well others
Taking all the life out of me leaving me weak and needy
But at the last minute crawling out of the abyss
To only reveal a world that I thought that you had left.
Did I make the correct choice at the crossroads?
Did I make the wrong choice will linger in my mind?
Until the next decision has to be made
I will never really know and even then
The question will remain, right or wrong?
Each time I choose at a crossroad part of me dies
But part of me feels alive.
Is it the danger of the choice?
Is it the uncertainty of the outcome?
Why do I keep coming back to the same things?
Why do the same things keep coming back to me?
Some say life is a cycle and it will run its course
Others believe that we create our own destiny
What do you believe?
Does it really matter who decides?
I have had to put my trust in only One
For all my future choices which ironically are not really choices
They are simply the path pre chosen for me but I have to find it
And sort it out among all the wrong paths
But learning from every one of them.
Letting go has been the hardest thing for me to attempt
But thus far has been the most rewarding
I am still just a child in this life and welcome
Everything new that I can be taught
I release my control to God and trust His word
That my life will be complete here and that
I will do the good that I was put here to do
Before I return to him.

How and When
How will I know when the time is the right time?
Feelings hit me sometimes with such force
Ignoring them is not an option I am looking for.
Up till now the bad outweighed the good
Sadness and confusion would take over my mind.
Overcoming the bad gets easier in time
But is never an easy thing to deal with or overcome.
Often you might try to learn from the mistakes
But over time it puts your emotions in a bind.
After so much time and so many years
Of getting no respect will wear on your self esteem.
And trying to dissect truth from deception becomes your main focus.
Often the strangest are reduced down to sorrow filled tears.
So how do you really know when the pain will end?
What are the signs we should be looking for?
Will they be easy to see and understand?
Will I be closer to helping my heart finally mend?
All I know it that when it truly happens you will feel it.
It may be subtle it may slap you in the face
Just be ready because when it does happen
You will want to dive all in and never quit.
When you get bit by the feeling of love your pain will be gone.
When your pain is gone you are able to allow the present to happen.
When you allow that the beginning doesnt matter and you are
In a world where an ending does not belong.
When the beginning and the end are no longer relevant
All your focus is on the middle.
Focus on the The Everlasting Middle and you will see
That when you focus on this the love that two share is constant.

Mom
Mom
Some say I chose you
Other may say it was not our chose
No matter how you see it
We were put together for a reason
You talked to me and sang to me
I cried, laughed and smiled
You fed me and nurtured me
I grew and learned how to be me
You gave me support when I needed it
Sometimes I look at it as a burden
But later in life I realized the meaning
You were there when nobody else was
I never appreciated it more than I do now
You gave me a foundation in which to build
My blocks have fallen many times but I rebuild
Just knowing that you have passed on your strengths
Keeps me going and keeps me positive
The older I get the more that I understand
All the times we argued were for my own development
So thank you Mom for being able to stand
When I didnt think I wanted you to
Thanks you for never giving up
When I thought you should have.
And thanks you for never losing faith in me
When I had lost it in myself
There are no words or any amount of money
That can repay you for the work that you have done
So I leave you with a simple
Thank you and I love you
