Open Road

by She Is Now Gone Away   Dec 30, 2008


Traveling down this road,
No real direction to where I'm going,
Only the LORD knows where I'll end,
And where the real beginning began,
But through this journey I'm traveling,
New and old faces come my way,
As I choose between these diffrent roads,
The LORD has put infront of me,
Right or wrong is what it is,
Yet my choice to what I want to do,
So here I've been for a long time,
Making all these wrong turns,
Till the day I finally realized,
That maybe if I made the right turn,
I'll find that blessing at the end,
But when I do make that right turn,
More difficult challenges come my way,
Making me want to just run away,
Giving up on my faith,
And taking that easy road,
Everyone loves to travel,
Instead of that road less traveled on,
But then someone else comes my way,
And helps me understand the LORD'S faith,
And what I really should be doing,
Which is not giving up on my faith,
But putting my life in GOD'S hands...

    I felt alot of this poem. I know there has been many times I have prayed. Wanting a God to save me or deliver me from whatever I am going through. I know it takes faith. But faith in what? God? The Lord? you say?

    "So here I've been for a long time,
    Making all these wrong turns,
    Till the day I finally realized,
    That maybe if I made the right turn,
    I'll find that blessing at the end."

    I've questioned my life and my decisions
    a thousand times over. I've told myself that maybe I should put my life in the hands of a higher power, but in the end I've always came back to rely on what I can. Myself.
