Loving Guidance

Reflective 

On life

Directive

To get it right

Every day 

Is a chance to grow 

Will take the initiative 

To fully live?

Sometimes it’s hard

But I haven’t given up

Sounds like a Hallmark card

But I go each step

Pain

In my world

Going insane

I will stay bold

The Bible 

Is full of wisdom

Will I take it in?

And confess every sin?

I am making progress

I see it in His eyes

Life starts to make sense

When I feel His loving guidance 

Despair Not

Despair, despair, despair 

Release every care

What might not work now

Might seem like a steep climb

But there’s a view on top 

Fret, fret, fret 

Let go of every regret

What you didn’t have

Might have been 

An opaque trophy

Loneliness, loneliness, loneliness 

Release every time you felt neglect

What might seem like isolation 

Is actually a sure sign of

Character development and growth 

We all go from spring to winter

Wounded hearts with a splinter

It’s all about how we recover

Make it to the finish line

With whole souls and a new focus
