I Am a 'Kept' Woman

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 on 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! I am indeed a 'kept' woman and praise God for it!

I got this in an email this morning and it blessed my heart, My friend Diana sent it to me and she is a truly wonderful friend. When I had my last knee replacement and was out of work for 6 months having 2 operations, I got a card from her every week, and the rest of my co-workers brought me food and snaks since I couldn't get out of bed. I have been blessed with truly wonderful people in my life......Thank you God.
