Miles To Go

Lord I have miles to go,
To complete the  tasks,
Assigned by you,
Love's pathways have ups and downs,
There are many hurdles on  the way,
I cannot realize my goals,
I cannot fulfill them cheerfully,
One problem leads to another,
And keeps me continually,
Harassed and troubled,
Let me run my course with  even joy,
And follow your footsteps closely,
To defeat the wiles of Satan,
And walk with thee to heaven.

Yes, most of the times one problem leads to the other and it is hard to run life with even joy without God's help. Really lovely poem.
