THIS IS WHY

It’s been another all alone,
another do it on my own.

The bills are way past due,
and it all rests on you.

The weight is getting heavy,
and it’s about to break this levy.

If I could only stop time for a break,
it’s just a little more than I can take.

I haven’t slept in days,
and who really cares anyway.

And I worry in the middle of the night,
if I’m doing this thing just right.

And most of the time I just cry,
because I wonder if we’ll get by.

Oh and I have some battles to face,
but I know I’m in the right place.

Because I’ve got a name,
no it’s not full of fame.

But I hear them calling Mommy I Love you,
and that’s why I do what I do.

So to all those single moms out there,
you’re a special kind of rare.

And here’s a big “Way To Go”,
because I’ve been there and I know.

Isaiah 40:29 - He giveth power to the faint; and to them that have no might he increaseth strength.

Phillipians 4:13 - I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me.

This is a poem I wrote this evening, it hasn't been the greatest day and there are times when being a single mom makes you feel as though you can't take one more step. I need Jesus to help me through these trying times and I need the prayers of people who love me. To other single moms hold on, I know its hard and I know you feel like you might be crushed beneath the pressure of all you have to bear. Just remember you're never really alone, call on Jesus, he will give you peace. If you ever need a friend who can relate just call I can listen. Much love and blessings to each and everyone of you!!

And remember

YOU ARE DOING A GREAT JOB ON THIS SINGLE PARENT JOURNEY!!

God Bless You!!
