I'm So Proud

I"''M SO PROUD

I’m so proud,
Of the way that you stayed
And followed God’s holy way,
In spite of opportunities to backslide and walk away/

I’m so proud,
That you steadfastly stood your ground,
So that you were not pushed around,
To stay home and in ungodly activities be found.

I’m so proud,
That you went to those schools,
To obtain the necessary tools,
So you’ll be a “woman of destiny”, and not be one of those  ”fools.”

That in the end,
I so glad I am your friend,
And may God, whom you serve,
Give you the choicest blessings that you deserve.

And now I gladly say,
Happy Birthday, Hip, Hip, Hooray!!!
For He who has begun in you,
A mighty work, good and new
Will continue until complete,
You, his workmanship, pure and sweet!

So don’t you DARE give up!
When the circumstances get rough and tough!
First God’s kingdom seek and find,
He’ll supply all you need for spirit, soul, body and mind.
So Giselle, I’ll say this clear and loud,
Happy, Happy Birthday, AND OF YOU I’M SO PROUD!!

From your “grateful” friend, Sharon.
