This is a nice lttle poem that I thought I would share with you, eventhough I think it maybe it is more directed to new Christians I hope you enjoy it.
I Am Learning, Lord
My life has taken many falls
And tumbles along the way.
The trials have left me,
In a sure state of dismay.
For with each trial , I tried alone
To tend , and soothe , and mend,
Instead of giving them to God
And on Him just depend....
But I am learning, Lord.
It seems that I was determined
To carry all the load;
I longed for smoother pathways
Yet I walked a rocky road.
Little did I understand,
God waited patiently
To pave a new beginning
With a better life for me....
But I am learning, Lord.
It took a real disaster
To bring me to my knees;
To finally call upon the Lord
And say, " God help me please"
He can with no delaying
With strong arms that could hold
The weight of all my burdens;
He gladly took the load.
But I am learning, Lord.
What a needless cross I carried,
All because I could not see
What a friend I have in Jesus,
And the love he has for me.
Peace I find when troubles hover,
Though the outcome is unknown,
For if yet the road is rocky,
I won't walk it all alone...
For I am learning, Lord
