Navigating Through Life's Highway
In life’s highway of God’s direction
I’m wondrously ushered while driving
midst wondrous twists and turns
maneuvered by the Almighty
designed with sovereign plan
toward triumphant fulfillment
my heart earnestly thanks for...
First, I was welcomed to babyhood
beaming with radiant hope
that commences journey*
marked by prayerful starting point
since my parents readied themselves
to watch momentous steps of mine
along family care and home’s serenity bliss…
Advancing in my childhood’s breakthroughs
I experienced growing up pains
along mirth-filled adventures
bracing leaps of adolescent period
driven to curiosity-peaked pursuits
optimizing freedom for schooling exploits
aided by teachers with their cautions and warnings.
Then propelled to keep on going
upon spiritual ignition of divine power-charge
my adulthood keeps oozing with grace
for service-impact and kindness-influence glow
in sharing achievements with great blessings
whether on soul-replenishing stop-overs
or sojourning moments in communion trip havens…
Anticipating for jubilant departure
I trust the Saviour Jesus Christ with faith
assuredly bringing me to my final destination
where He Himself reigns eternally
as legacy is prayed-for to remain
verily endowed well, begetting another life
to navigate through existence-highway victoriously.
*Deuteronomy 10:11 And the LORD said unto me, Arise, take thy journey before the people, that they may go in and possess the land, which I sware unto their fathers to give unto them.
