Judy’s Poem
This poem came to me on the plane as I came home, after experiencing my third Parkinson’s Unity Walk. It just made me think of God’s blessings and His goodness to me at this time in my life. Enjoy!
I’m learning PD’s not as strong
When I face it with a heart filled with song.
And what a gift to receive… a smile, from a friend,
That helps me make it to another day’s end.
I cannot think of it all
And ignore blessings, big or small,
That come from the Father above
Who smiles down on me with kindness and love.
No matter the circumstance or place
He promises He will not hide His face…
Love, grace, and mercy He will supply
Even when we struggle and ask “Why?”
Father, this road looks too hard for me
Would you send someone encouraging?
And give me strength to face each day,
With courage, hope, and faith… I pray.
For I know you are in control
Of all of me – heart, mind, and soul
Let me be a reflection of your goodness
To those around me who may be happy or in distress
I want my life to follow your plan
As I walk among my fellow man
And one day may your voice I hear
Telling me you’ve found my love for you honest and sincere,
That I am welcomed into the Heavenly place
And will spend eternity in Your love and grace!
Judy
