New Beginnings

No matter what your circumstance
Or what you have come through,
Do not play the "blame game"
Or on not-good memories chew.

Move ahead... do not look back...
Lest bitterness consume.
And then when bitterness sets in
It only brings more gloom.

If self-pity tiries to come
Don't let it hang around.
Self-pity and the blame game
With much "sorriness" abound.

God will give you confidence
And set you on firm ground.
In Him are new beginnings,
Just waiting to be found.

"The Lord is my strength and my shield; my heart trusted in him, and I am helped; therefore my heart greatly rejoiceth; and with my song will I praise him."
Psalm 28:7-8 KJV
