Hurray! Am A Year Prettier Today (My Birthday Poem)

Yayyy! Happy birthday to me (Every January 21st is my day).
“Always see every day as a chance to start afresh and make it count by living it as if it is your last”


I’m happy to witness another 365 days of my life. Although the journey has been tough and rough, yet I give glory to God for giving me the strength to move on.
Even though the sky has been somewhat cloudy, still, I thank God for every little sunshine.
Even though the tunnel is somewhat dark, still, I thank God because there is a silver lining at the end.
Even though my lamp almost went out, still, I thank God for giving me oil that will last forever.
Even though there are few stars in the sky,  I thank God for counting me worthy to be among the shining stars.
Even though it rains every day, still, I thank God for the rainbow that comes with the sunshine.
Even though am not worthy of his love, still, he showers me with his FLAWLESS MERCY and GRACE.
Hmmm… I could go on and on about what God has done for me and still doing; but I just want to acknowledge HIM for who HE is.
Thank you LORD for another 365 days journey and many more years in peace, joy, mercy and grace of the Lord.


I will never forget to hold on to my inner child as I grow older. Besides I don’t remember how old I am because I have decided not to grow older but PRETTIER.


HAPPY BIRTHDAY to my humble self, OLUFUNKE MERCYFLAWLESS, the daughter of TANIMOLA.
