Poem: Waitin' On A Blessin'

Waitin' On A Blessin'

By: Joi Maree Flowers

Stressin'

Waitin' for a blessin'

No answers to my prayers received as of today

Hope strugglin' to hold on to faith

Constantly bein' tested

Battlin' temptation

Been so close to a dream

So close to the sky that I could touch a star

And then I blink

And again it seems I'm back to where I first started before

Gotten through some rough storms

Climbed some high mountains

Walked some bumpy roads

Mocked by jealousy's mouth

But after all that

It still seems that I haven't don't enough

Though I keep pushin' on

Even after hearing the word "No"

I grow impatient sometimes

To time

I grow restless sometimes

To drive

But I promise I won't let go

I promise I won't give up

Because He never gave up on me

And I know in this moment 

He's preparin' a blessin' that will rescue me
