Notes About The Poem

I got my inspiration for this Poem  from the song lyrics Turn! Turn! Turn! by Pete Seeger and recorded by the Byrds.  Also Ecclesiastes Chapter 3 in the Bible. 

Life Is a Journey

Life is a journey,
For those who believe,
There is a place far greater
Than what we now see.

We all have different paths in life,
Different journeys along the way,
How we choose to live our lives,
Determines where we'll stay.

We are only travelers
In a world that's not our home,
For there is an occasion and a time
For every purpose under Heaven.

And when our journey finally ends,
We'll find a great reward,
Having peace and understanding
Together with the Lord.
