WHERE WAS I?

WhereWasI“God, please give me a husband
And children of my own
So I can be fulfilled in life
In setting up a home.
 
I’ll take good care to do it right
There’s nothing I won’t do
This is all I ask in life
Please Lord, make it true.”
 
In His time my prayer was answered
Though I was not aware
For I was caught in worldly things
In anxieties and cares.
 
And when there was a need at home
Where was I? I wasn’t there
No, I was out at work and you see
The need was greater there?
 
Then Jesus came and dwelt within
This wayward heart of mine
And showed me all the areas
That had gone wrong with time.
 
He showed me that my purpose here
Was as a steward for
He’d graciously given me
What I’d asked of Him, plus more.
 
What was I doing out at work?
He said He would provide
All my needs, my heart’s desires
He’d never leave my side.
 
“O thank You Lord for Your great love
That teaches us the way
You’ve set me free from worldly lust
And now there’s joy today.”
 
For at last I am fulfilled
As a mother and a wife
And I’m no longer drawn
To worries, anxieties and strife.
 
You see, I’ve left it all to Him
There’s just no other way
For me to be fulfilled in life
Is to know God’s Word and obey.
