God's goodness

I look around me daily and I see the works of man,
The buildings, cars, clothes, exotic wears,
And most times I forget a lot about what my Lord made.
I get in cars, buy the clothes,
And I have my head turned by the things I see
And most times I forget a lot about what my Lord made.
I curse when it rains, curse when it snows,
The only weather I am interested in is what is good for me,
And I forget that He made it all...
I stay up some nights and sleep through some days,
Forgetting that they were made for a reason...
And with all these going on around and in me,
I forget the little things in life that gave him pleasure,
That gave Him pleasure in the seven days.
The seven days it took Him to create the world.

The sunrise and the sunset,
One of the most beautiful sights in the world... Free.
The very air I breathe
Giving my body the fuel to live... Free.
You say bad weather???
For every drop of rain I curse about,
There is a farmer thanking God.
Thanking Him for a chance to grow the food
The same food I eat daily.
I complain when it is hot, I complain when it is cold
Which do I want?? He made them all...

I complain when things go well,
I complain even more when they are bad...
And you should hear me when there is nothing...
We ask for so much daily,
yet fail to appreciate what we already have.
I have never seen a mother complain after labour
One of the worst natural pains borne by them.
And at the end of it all, a child is born...
That one child is worth all the pain for them.
That one child is not just a result of all the labour
But also a result of God's goodness and grace.

There is a silver lining in every cloud...
But there are very dark clouds...
There is light at the end of the tunnel,
But there are very long tunnels.
Are you giving up? Or losing hope?
Are you walking the right path??
Are you beginning to doubt His goodness?
Think of a mother in labour,
Think of the works of His hands
Watch a sunrise or a sunset...
Even better, take a deep breathe...
U know what's best???
Your child is being born.
God IS good.
