Way, Truth, Life

I can hear 
the voice of wisdom
yet fail to understand
so what is truth.

I can see
the swirling dust of chaos
yet miss the winds direction
where lies my way.

I can experience 
the joys and sorrows
savor earthly existence 
but, is this true life?

How do I 
find my way
discover the truths
which lead to eternal life.

My Lord said
listen to my words
with open hearts
that you may truly hear me.

For I am the way
which follows truth
leads to eternal life
and our heavenly Father.

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your faith through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.

"My Lord said listen to my words with open hearts that you may truly hear me." - GREAT ADVICE indeed!

Hey, God gave us step by step instructions, but like most I tried to do it my way refusing to read them, that worked so NOT well
