GOD`S WILL AND CHOICES
 
After going from job to job for five years,
I was a young married man with my fears.
So, I left B`ham, Al. on I-20 East Freeway.
In Atlanta, Ga., I started working at Roadway.

It was September when I started.
By December, so soon, I parted.
Because of an illegal strike, I was fired.
Now, a security job, I acquired.

I wasn`t paid much, but it had to do.
I prayed, 'Father, what am I to do?'
About two or three months,
Roadway called me.
I said, 'Thank you God
for answering my plea.'

After thirty three years,
I`m retired from Roadway.
I thank God, He always makes a way.
You may call it luck, or chance in life.
But, I call it God`s blessing in my life.

Somethings, we gain, somethings we lose.
It depends on God`s will, and how we choose.
