Secret Grace

 I can understand for this moment
whatever is happening in my life
However heavy my heart feels,
or how difficult the trials may be
I know I can keep on believing,
the myriad that make up
my thoughts and dreams.
I know darkness will fade into morning,
and with this dawn a new day, too.
I understand that our life is an empty canvas
waiting to be drawn out.
I know that we mold, create and shape our life.
With our faith, we trust, to be born again.
I try to lead by example, knowing
  that my smile merely brightens a day for others, 
while their reaction brings my heart closer to home.
I hope that my darkness is hidden from the rear view
  and our pain is halved by sharing the same feeling 
that others endure throughout a lifetime of grace.
