"My Smiley Face"
I'm basically a happy person, and I'm seldom depressed -
Joy comes from The Lord, and I am greatly blessed!
One morning health circumstances made me feel blue -
Then a little sign from God made me feel brand new!
That morning God gave me a cute smiley face -
As a sign of His love, His mercy, and grace!
It really is a fact ... and not just a rumor -
Our God is amazing with a great sense of humor!
My glass of ice water had been sitting for a while -
And when I picked it up I saw a lopsided smile!
There were two eyes, a nose, and a big crooked grin ...
So cute and funny - it brought a smile from within!
The Lord knew I needed a smile that day -
And it was His way of chasing my blues away!
Of all troubles and sadness - The Lord is aware -
So I thank You, Dear Lord, for showing me You care!
I drew an outline of my funny smiley face -
While the drops of water were still in place.
A copy of my smiley face (pictured above) -
Is an amazing revalation of God's perfect love!
