(God’s Sonnet by Timothy J. Verret; “it’s how I cope to hope in ‘YELP!’ for a better today than yesterday with the “HELP!” of God”)
You are better today than yesterday.
You’re more the “be” than the “do” in your ways.
You’re more the surrender than led astray.
Life is Godly when you have God who stays.
I’m better today than yesterday’s pain,
when the other shoe dropped and I was “YELP!”
That was a day when everything was strain.
Today, I’m more “drain me, God” from self-help.
“Jesus is the same yesterday and now
and forever more.” He don’t change. We do.
We have to love to get the sacred vow
of comfort and joy promised to the few.
Won’t be easy to love when easy prey.
Hold on! Better today than yesterday.
