Poetic Encouragment

I found this old poem the other night...I wrote it in 2012 and totally forgot about it! When I was flipping through one of my many notebooks the other night (actually looking for a specific poem for a friend of mine) I came across it and thought I would share...it is untitled as of yet so feel free to offer suggestions! Lol

*place nonexistent title here*

I know it hurts you,
This process of mine,
You're feeling crushed,
Weighted by time.
In a hurry to move,
To go and to do,
But be still and know,
That I am with you.
Chipping, sanding, grinding away,
I am the potter,
You are the clay.
Be patient my child,
Do not be afraid,
For by me,
All things were made.
I'll carry you,
And hold your tears,
And if you'll let me,
Dispose of your fears.
When this process is through,
You will be fine,
And my diamond-in-the-rough,
Forever you'll shine.


Anywhoo, there it is. Be encouraged! :)

Also, I know many of you are already aware but my cousin Travis Chandler was just diagnosed with lung cancer and needs a miracle!! Please keep him in your prayers! Thank you!

    1. Hey there Courtney! My blog is definitely a work in progress...I seem to struggle with posting consistently. ;) I appreciate the kind words!- they mean a lot. As for the poem, its a bit of a selfish hobby as I do believe that I get more out of them than the reader. It is always a blessing to share with others!
      Thanks for stopping by!-Feel free to come back and leave comments! I love hearing from you all.
