"In the life of a saint
there is no such thing as
chance."
Oswald Chambers
Chance...
something left to fate,
a risk that we might take,
a happening beyond control
that causes us to duck and roll
with 'punches' thrown
from the 'man upstairs'.
when will it be over?
so i can regain composure?
and get it together again...
this pain will be forgotten
it was never meant to happen
a mistake
from the 'man upstairs'.
but if a mistake was made
life has no rhythm or reason
no meaning beyond today
so hopeless
so lost
so threateningly tossed
upon the waves of life
but i know that there is
Someone in control
Who grasps my very soul
and gives me hope
that life is not driven
by a chance
a happenstance
by fate, by possibility
but by the hand of God...
