When life doesn't make sense

Joy Keepin’

As my life began to unravel, and my heart began to break.
Things were changing fast around me, and my soul began to shake.
The hurt over ran all reason, and my eyes began their weeping.
My father in His loving care, taught me joy keeping.
Many things I can never change in this journey now so hard.
So much damage was brought our way, as choices left their scars.
Two little lights once innocent, now know new hurt and pain.
What should’ve been a precious love, has now become a drain.
I kiss the tears and share the loss, as best a mom can do.
I share the blessed belief I have, that GOD will see us through.
When sorrow mounts and overwhelms, and trouble comes a creeping,
We hit our knees and pray out loud, ‘cause were joy keeping.
It’s all very simple you see, based on child like trust.
My Father wants the best for me, keeping joy is a must!

  1. Dear Joykeepin,

    Hope is the single most important thing keeping us alive. And hope comes of belief.

    “Many things I can never change in this journey now so hard.
    So much damage was brought our way, as choices left their scars.”

    But scars heal with time. I know its easier said and the one facing the situation is truly aware of it. But after a long time when the dust settles and when one has the time to look back and ponder those dark days seem so immaterial.

    Well written.

    Respectfully,
    Amartya
