Throughout my life, I’ve sought many things,
From which have come both good and bad tidings;
Yet, I’ve never lost my faith or hope,
In that they’ve been essential in helping me to cope;
I’ve learned a lot over my life’s many years,
The happiness has brought me joy and the sadness tears;
These teachings I’ve used much like stepping stones,
Moving through the elements life brought with each one;
Since learning is a true virtue of life,
If used effectively, it can often remove life’s strife;
Faith and trust in The Lord’s actions is the most essential key;
For He’s always with us and knows what’s best for you and me.
