YOU ARE NOT AN ACCIDENT

PERSONALIZING RUSSELL KELFER'S POEM

I am who I am for a reason.
I am part of an intricate plan.
I am a precious and perfect unique design,
called God's special woman (or man).

I look like I look for a reason.
My God made no mistake.
He knit me together within the womb,
I am just what He wanted to make.

The parents I have are the ones he chose,
And no matter how I may feel,
They were custom-designed with God's plan in mind,
and they bear the master's seal.

No, that trauma I faced was not easy.
And God wept that it hurt me so;
But it was allowed to shape my heart
So that into His likeness I would grow.

I am who I am for a reason,
I have been formed by the Master's rod.
I am who I am
Because there is a God!


......nothing in your life is arbitrary. It's all for a purpose

Poem from the Book: The Purpose Driven Life by Rick Warren
