Hold My Hand

I was out in this world amidst the nearsighted unknowing of the winding road How could I have not seen the dead end sign therefore to be led off course into a ditch seems as if no one knew who to call trying to find the way back to the road while drifting further away searching for happiness out in the wilderness a mistake for all was out for their own trying one thing after another only to last for a moment leaving me empty and unsatisfied I fell to my knees and held out my hands as my spirit yelled for the Lord to save me Then Jesus took hold of my hand instantly I felt Love not of this world dusting me off and a cleansing within pulling me up I knew then I was gonna be lead back to the road No more stumbling around in the dark with no light For His path is well lit from which He created He shall never leave one alone while guiding and protecting If one shall get tired He shall pick them up and carry them while providing and endless quench to hunger and thirst I will hold onto the Lords hand engulfing the peace of knowing The Lord will lead me home for only by Him shall I find rest

I love this poem because we all seem to stray off the road at one point or another and ask him to save us and put us in the right direction. It is simple all we have to do is ask. love phyl
