My Feet

As I look to my feet
They head one direction
My heart though …
Turns to an other

How does one deal 
With such conflict?
I have come to decide
I will turn where My heart is bound

It seeks the love
The guidance and wisdom
That only God can give
In His endless desire for us

He gave us His love
Through Jesus His son
He gave us guidance and wisdom
By means of His Holy Spirit

Where my feet have taken me
Has only been struggles
And much pain
Far more than I care to endure

So I choose to go 
Where my heart is bound
I turn to God
For He has always been there

With me ... during my 
Unhappy times ... He waits
Waiting … waiting for me 
To turn to Him
