I believe that God goes through the extreme

to protect us from ourselves.

He makes it his biggest concern,

to keep us from falling off the shelves-

we call life.

He kept me from compromising my position as wife

within you heart.

It was so hard, to stay focused on what was to come

So He allowed me to become -

someone new.

Knowing that what I would go through-

would make it worth it in the end.

He even changed my group of friends,

and those guys I thought I could keep around for companionship-

He came and destroyed those relationships,

so that I could strip affection that was rightfully yours.

Tired of  all the  multiple wars,

that wage in my heart tonight.

Deciding what is wrong and  right-

I guess God has this way of protecting us ...

Because  in His word about you - I trust.
