God Was There

It's calm and peaceful, and I feel great.

I always leave early, so I won't be late.

Chance is coming next week, my family is great.

Had a pre-cancerous spot frozen off today.

~~~

This is the peace I seek,

It's never too late.

Things get in the way,

But GOD was there.

~~~

A box, afraid to collide,

Go to the left, did I get my seatbelt properly hooked?

I needed help since the surgery with that.

So many thoughts inside.

~~~

Is this myself? Last time I looked!!

Oh, what despair! BUT, God was there!

Why am I going so fast? Why is it dark?

Is this my first chance or last.

~~~

Am I late, should I park?

But no worries, no cares,

God was there.

God makes no mistakes.

~~~

He followed me through,

He placed each thing in place.

The EMT who would save my life.

Like applying the brakes.

~~~

He whispers, I'll l take care of you!

I saw an angel, with a smiling face.

No worries, no strife

Never fear God was there!

~~~

I was reminded once again,

That God is the same, he never changes.

And of a long time friend, "Chance" who remains close.

Of family and loved ones, who love me dearly.

~~~

I never question why me, because I see clearly.

There is a need for me here.

I smile and try to bring cheer.

Thought it all,  what I know most.

~~~

Is I'm changed, yet still the same,

Thankful that nobody else was hurt and nobody to blame.

I feel safe and secure in God's care, and without a doubt.

HE WAS THERE
