She Grows (By His Grace)

She Grows (By His Grace)
By Kevina Joy
She fights hard like a warrior, but often leaves the battle bruised
Spiritually broken down and often feeling misused
The pain of it all she buries deep in her soul
The weight of this burden surely takes its toll
She seeks the companionship for which she was designed
Straight from the rib of her mate in the beginning of time
Centuries ago he handled her heart with care
But as time has evolved he acts like she’s not even there
She’s left to take on as many roles as she can
Head of household, sole provider, both the woman & the man
She grows tired in spirit and weary at heart
The role of playing superwoman is tearing her apart
Trying to keep it all together, taking care of house and home
Keeping everybody happy, while still she feels alone
She cries out to her God; she’s lonely, tired & annoyed
Asking why has He forsaken her and left her with this void
But then she suddenly realizes that her God, the most high
Has been with her all the way, He had never left her side
All her trials and tribulations worked together for her good
They made her stronger & wiser, just as God had known they would
He spoke power & protection over her life and her home
And she knew that going forth, she would never be alone
It was the greatest realization and now that she knows
She heals, she forgives, she prays and she grows
