WOULD YOU?

When your life is always a struggle,
You feel you have too much to juggle.
Not knowing what to lose or keep,
Spiritual guidance you should seek.

I hope you know where to find his word,
I am hoping by now all have heard.
There is only one you can give eternal life,
Just cut the ties that cut like a knife.

If your life was perfect every day,
I doubt you would care what I say.
I want you to seek me out,
You never need to scream or shout.

Just close your eyes and say a prayer,
Knowing I will be there.
For you are a child of mine.
You don't need any other sign.

You will find me at your door,
Asking you to shine brightly and soar.
All will be forgiven if you ask,
I really believe that's a simple task.

Yes, Sharyl, He will always forgive if we ask and are really sincere and repentant which means we intend to do what is necessary to go on a much better path as we go forward. God loves us so much He sent His only Son. Thank you for sharing this one with us. Congrats on it being featured on homepage. Way to go. Sara K
