Kept

Not too long ago, after taking a little vacation, I told David that I could get used to being a "kept woman". Now I didn't mean that I desired to be someone's mistress, I meant that I could get use to not having to work everyday. David's reply to that remark was "Mom, you are kept!"

I should get to the point. . . I hadn't thought much about that comment until this morning when a friend sent an email to me about a kept woman. My son is so wise beyond his years. . .

I Am a 'Kept ' Woman

You see, there were a few times when I thought I would lose my mind,
But GOD kept me sane. (Isa. 26:3)

There were times when I thought I could go no longer,
But the LORD kept me moving. (Gen 28:15)

At times, I've wanted to lash out at those whom I felt had done me wrong,
But the LORD kept my mouth shut.. (Psa. 13)

Sometimes, I think the money just isn't enough,
But GOD has helped me to keep the lights on, the water on, the car paid, the house paid, etc.., (Matt. 6:25 -34)

When I thought I would fall, HE kept me up.
When I thought I was weak, HE kept me strong! (I Pet. 5:7, Matt. 11:28-30)

I could go on and on and on, but I'm sure you hear me!
I'm blessed to be 'kept '

I'm "Kept" by the Love and Grace of God

  1. You are so right and I find your sayings to be very inspirational you have made me think upon how kept I am as well.
