I Am a 'Kept' Woman?

You see, there were a few times when I thought I would lose my mind,

But GOD kept me sane. (Isa. 26:3)

There were times when I thought I could go no longer,

But the LORD kept me moving. (Gen 28:15)

At times, I've wanted to lash out at those whom I felt had done me wrong,

But the LORD kept my mouth shut. (Psa. 13)

Sometimes, I think the money just isn't enough,

But GOD has helped me to keep the lights on, the water on, the car paid, the house paid, etc.., (Matt. 6:25 -34)

When I thought I would fall, HE kept me up.

When I thought I was weak, HE kept me strong! (I Pet. 5:7, Matt. 11:28-30)

I could go on and on and on, but I'm sure you hear me!

I'm blessed to be 'kept.'

I'm 'Kept' by the Love and Grace of God!

God is AWESOME, share Him with someone you love !!!

I never thought I'd be "glad" to be a kept woman.;)

jrob, isn't it powerful to see how a word can be changed - like this?

Amen. We can do nothing in our own strength even though I seem to want to try. He is faithful. He helped me through lots of trials and I am so grateful I have God in my life. Angie

That is presented so well. I think I am going to use it at the end of this month at church. We have something called 'Octogenarian Sunday' and I think this would be perfect to share then...
