Thank God For Not Giving You What You Want... Poem by RIC BASTASA

thank God
for not giving you what you are praying for

when it is not given
it is because it does not belong to you
because if given
it can cause you more harm than God

for God knows what is inside our hearts
his omniscience extends seven thousand years ahead
than your seven seconds

always thank the Lord
for he knows best
do not worry
do not complain
He shall give you the best for you

at the right time
and for the right reason.
