A Poem About 2020


      At the end of last year as we looked towards the future, we anticipated all sorts of things.

     Hopes, dreams, and plans, that we hoped would come true, but that’s not what this new year would bring.


     This year has been different than years of the past, I think that we all can agree.

     While some were hit harder and others hit less, it’s been a strange year for all human beings. 


     For many this year has made more time at home, when school, work, or plans had been changed.

     What if God knew you needed more time seeking Him, and so He your life rearranged?


     What if He saw that your life’s but a vapor, and you needed more time to reflect? 

     To watch children grow, and see Fall leaves change, and make memories to collect.


     What if this year is a year to prepare for something that’s coming someday?
     Something that you’ll need to be grounded in Him for, if you want your faith to be stayed.

 

     So as we continue to wonder and wait, not sure what tomorrow will bring,

     Instead of just sighing at our scattered plans, embrace 2020 and sing!
