Changes

Changes

So often we ask for everything we want.

So often we get an answer we don’t like.

I asked for much and I got much more.

I asked for something simple and God gave me everything.

You were a surprise but you were what I needed.

You are more than what I had hoped for.

You are more than what I thought I deserved.

My happiness comes from knowing that you are mine forever.

All my desires have changed. They revolve around me and you.

God gives us more than what we want.

He gives us what we need. What’s best for us.

What will bring us to Him. Nothing will change that.

Waiting

Waiting

Love happens

So effortlessly

You with me

Wrapped up in happiness

Afterwards, we smile

We love

We live

The wait

The hope

I’m caught up in it

Thinking about it

But not too much

Trying to keep busy

We love

We live

We wait

In hope

That soon we

Will be more

Not just us,

But we with him

Or her

Whatever God decides

The wait is hard

But the love is easy.
