On the Right Road

One of the hardest things to deal with in life Is when you're stuck in situations that cause nothing but strife Unable to move from point a to point b Unable to move out of abject poverty Unable to have relationships that are beneficial and true Unable to leave that environment which has seemed to have swallowed you Now hating those who are progressing and moving ahead With bitterness in your heart, angry and seeing red Now a blind man was on the road a beggar named Bartimaeus Stuck in his situation when he encountered the Lord Jesus He was on the right road that day with a chance to change his situation He was on the right road that day to receive a life altering transformation Many of us allow our situations to overwhelm us and take control Many of us stay in the same rut too afraid to think bold Unwilling to spare some change in regards to our circumstances Unwilling to get up and go out, unwilling to take chances You can't blame no one but yourself if you stay stuck in your situation You need to interrupt that vicious cycle if want true transformation Bartimaeus interrupted the cycle of his tedious every day life And when the opportunity arose he got bold and called on Jesus the Lord Christ Stepping out on faith Bartimaeus flipped the script And in spite of others rebuking him towards Jesus he went He was on the right road that day and in the right place And in spite of his blindness and brokenness he received Jesus's mercy and grace Now when Jesus asked Bartimaeus of his needs and desires It was a question of self examination and godly inspired For God has a way of making us look inside ourselves to discover What we need to be made whole and completely recovered On the right road with God with the right attitude in mind On the right road trusting in God and you will come to find That God knows what you need to be made whole As only God has the ability to heal your soul On the right road ready to make a change in life On the right road trusting in God and Jesus the Christ
