God's Will

Things have been extremely stressful lately, everything that could happen basically has... anyways I am not complaining about it because I truly believe that God has given me such peace in my life at this time that the stress of everything is not overcoming my spirits or my faith. He is great and has both taken away and given me so much and I could not have more faith in Him than I do now. I am truly at peace with life in spite of all the negative in life right now. And I do believe that a LOT of the peace He has given me has come from the sweet sweet supportive man that He brought into my life nearly 8 years ago, I would not be the person I am today if it were not for this wonderful man.

I leave you with the lyrics to a Martina McBride Song "God's Will" (it's not the one I was looking for but fits well)

I met God's Will on a Halloween night
He was dressed as a bag of leaves
It hid the braces on his legs at first
His smile was as bright as the August sun
When he looked at me
As he struggled down the driveway,
it almost Made me hurt
Will don't walk too good
Will don't talk too good
He won't do the things that the other kids do,
In our neighborhood
[Chorus:]
I've been searchin', wonderin', thinkin'
Lost and lookin' all my life
I've been wounded, jaded, loved and hated
I've wrestled wrong and right
He was a boy without a father
And his mother's miracle
I've been readin', writin', prayin', fightin'I guess I would be still
Yeah, that was untilI knew God's Will
Will's mom had to work two jobs
We'd watch him when she had to work late
And we'd all laugh like I hadn't laughed
Since I don't know when
Hey Jude was his favorite song
At dinner he'd ask to pray
And then he'd pray for everybody in the world but him
[Chorus]
Before they moved to California
His mother said, they didn't think he'd live
And she said each day that I have him,
well it's just another gift
And I never got to tell her, that the boy
Showed me the truth
In crayon red, on notebook paper, he'd written
Me and God love you
I've been searchin', prayin', wounded, jaded
I guess I would be still
Yeah that was until...
I met God's Will on a Halloween night
He was dressed as a bag of leaves
