In His Hands

Lately I have wondered what life is all about
My past, present, future. I cant figure it out
Then suddenly it came to me
Only HE knows whats meant to be
During lifes highs and through the lows
HE will show me what I need to know
HIS love and protection are never far
Like that November day when I totaled my car
When that truck pulled into my path
HE was there - right in my lap
That day HE taught me a lot of lessons
All in a span of about 2 seconds
That vision of myself lying in a coffin
Made me start going to see my Dad more often
When my brother came around that curve and slammed on brakes
You should have seen the look on his face
He saw my car before he saw me
When our eyes met all I saw was relief
I went home from the hospital bruised and sore
But appreciated life more and more
I know that HE kept me safe from harm
And placed me back in my Mothers arms
Now when I lay down at night I cant wait
To thank God for keeping my family and friends safe
Thats just one of the moments in my life
That HE made sure I'd be alright
I dont understand whats meant to be
But I know HE always looks out for me
HE didnt keep me in that bad relationship any longer
Than what I needed to make myself stronger
Now I know I am truly blessed
Because I can recognize real happiness
If I hadnt went through any hardships
I couldnt appreciate how great my life is
To anybody that has played a part
I thank you from the bottom of my heart
Whatever life brings my way - I know that I am
Without a doubt - IN GODS HANDS
