Down The Road

[soblessed53]

In life many roads we travel everyday
some twist and turn then go the other way.
I could travel down the road and try to make it on my own
but I’d quickly lose my way and path that I had known.
Without Jesus I am nothing, I have no strength at all,
He’s the one who guides my way and helps me when I fall.
Without Jesus I couldn’t make it for He’s the One I need,
He straightens up the road ahead then helps me to proceed.

Down the road without out Jesus, I don’t think I’ll try,
even if the road is straight and I know I could get by.
Without Jesus by my side is the worst place I could be,
to face life without Jesus would be a foolish thing for me.
He‘s my strength when I am weak, my protector and my guide
and when I’m feeling sad and down in His arms I hide.
There’s no place but by Jesus, it’s the best place I could be
and if you keep Him by your side I know that you’ll agree.

Facing life without Jesus is just days filled with pain
and when you think it’s over the pain just starts again.
There is no one who can help you cause you’ve pushed Jesus away
and without Jesus you’ll keep struggling day after day.
He’s the One you need and He’s waiting just for You,
He longs for you to call on Him then He’ll help you get through.
He’ll take away your broken heart; joy will fill your soul,
for He loves you and He longs to fill your life and make it whole.

Down the road without Jesus, that’s one thing I won’t try,
even when the road is straight and I know I could get by.
I won’t face it without Jesus, cause He’s the best for me
cause I know Jesus with me is the way that it should be.
I know that Jesus loves me for He died to save my soul,
no other love can wash away my sins and make me whole.
So I’ll face my life with Jesus, I’m right where I should be,
cause going down the road with Jesus is the only way for me.

I like this, SoBlessed! Especially meaningful to me is the above phrase, the part "I KNOW I could get by"...

I used to not even think about it; I was sure that I could do all things -- by myself...

I was a Christian, and God blessed me every day and kept me safe, but Satan did finally knock me down a few pegs.

I realized then that I was nothing without Christ. He breathed life into me and called my name from the womb, created a perfect earth for me to live in and gave me this life that I now live by faith.

Now when I see those who are certain they can make it, can "get by" on their own, I pray for their wisdom to learn things easily and not the hard way - like I did!

Praise God I learned, but next time? I'm going the easy way, not the hard way!

"Apart from Him I can do nothing".

Peace!
