Running Back To God

The world was a cold and lonely place Never saw a friendly face Everybody trying to keep the pace But, I went running back to God. No love, no sunlight could be found Pain and hate were all around Terror lived in every sound But, I went running back to God. I could have stopped and turned around And to this sinful Earth be bound But freedom, peace and love I found When I went running back to God. Josette Davis Key 2013

Josette, this is such an inspirational write! So glad I stopped by to read your wonderful poem. We'll never find peace or joy in worldly things and what a blessing to know that God is always waiting for us to turn back to Him. God Bless! Love, Kim
