A Poem for Thought!

  Pretty Awesome World

In this place there's much I've adored

From birds in the air to waters below

Thank You for a pretty awesome world, Lord

Seeing what You created I'm floored

Your thoughts of beauty surely does show

In this place there's much I've adored

As to our needs in this place You poured

Food, clothing, and a place to rest bestow

Thank You for a pretty awesome world, Lord

Although hard to cope this place sometimes

I've learned to the good to look upon

As the good outweighs the bad oftentimes

Happy here is what your view based on

I view the beauty You made of plenty

The love You gave us I mean, c'mon

A fabulous world than most of any

In this place there's much I've adored

Grateful to You I am of many

Thank You for a pretty awesome world, Lord

Thoughts: Sometimes we can get so wrapped up in our struggles or in our luxury or all that lays in between (what ever the case may be), that we forget just how beautiful this place we live. Happy here really does depend on one's view of the world we live. Sure sometimes it can be hard, very hard; but if all one sees is that then of course it will affect one's happiness. I live a struggling life, but still am happy to live in such a beautiful place and do appreciate what ever the Lord gives me. Life itself is a reason to be happy. We live in a world created by a God that had our well-being in mind, and the beauty He gave us is pretty awesome.
