The Nerve

[Blissfully Blessed]

The Nerve
by Holy_Loved

I have the nerve to be happy,
the audacity to smile;
even as my country falls
around me all the while.

I cannot change what's happening,
though hurtful it may be;
because I know my Savior
has a better plan for me.

As surely as the evil grows,
so will I persist;
in watching as it takes a world
unwilling to resist.

I will give a warning
to any who will hear;
to get upon your knees and pray,
for time is drawing near.

My beloved Jesus
is coming to retrieve
all of us who love Him,
and truly do believe.

This is why I'm happy
with such sadness all around;
as soon my painful, weary feet
will lift up from the ground.

Please feel free to share my sister's poetry. It's with her permission.

You speak what is in my heart.
