Paths

I do not know

What lies ahead;

The paths

Which I

May be called

To tread upon--

Where do I turn

When I run out of me?

When I no longer have

Ideas,

Plans

When I am 

cOnfuSed?

and

Certain!

[Un...?]

When the road ahead 

looks exactly

Like what lies behind

And I want to see

When

If

It changes

And how

And why.

Where does it lead, 

This path I tread?

Why is the direction

celanur

Foggy

Mysterious 

Unknown?

I want to see!

But then 

The Answer comes:

I must learn to trust

The One who

KNOWS

and cares

for me.

Every Once in Awhile

Every once in awhile,
Behind this smile,
There resides a little sigh.
You may wonder, "Why?"

Sometimes this mind
Gets stuck behind
In all this mess
Of worldliness.

Sometimes these eyes no longer see
The beauty He made for me.

Sometimes this heart, confused,
Remembers not the love infused.
By my Savior, my King--
And His praises cease to ring
Within my heart.

Oh! Let them not depart.
Never cease to fight
For what you know is right.
Though the night seems long
And you have forgotten your song--

Remember Him
And every whim
Of doubt--
Throw out!

He is the rock:
Let your trust lock
And your heart be filled
With His love, revealed.
Remember, when your heart despairs:
Your hope is found in prayer.
