Sometimes in life we have to give up what we want most, to find what is best. That often means giving up our thoughts of what we are, what love is, and what we want in life, and begin the path to what God wants us to be, to perfect love, and God’s plan for us. Besides, what God has for us is so much more than what we want for ourselves anyway. He gives us perfect love, peace that passes all understanding, and the true desires of our hearts. So Be Blessed my friends and know that the Lord thy God will see you through, just sometimes we have to lose ourselves, before we find ourselves.
Two poems to share on this subject.
The Path
Where is my life going?
I wonder from time to time.
Where is my life going?
I look to Jesus, and to the path that is mine.
Life with purpose, that is the goal.
Peace that passes understanding
Peace for my soul.
Run the race with patience
Run the race to win.
He has set the course
I just have to begin.
Step by step, day by day
Seeking after Him
Walking in His way
Waiting for him to speak
For by the spirit I am lead
Waiting on Him
And by His word fed,
His time I borrow
For he redeems the time
And I continue on
As I walk this path of mine.

Empty
Love’s lost, my heart’s dying
No end to tears, I’m crying
Pain endures, mortifying
Spirit is bound, dissatisfying
Redemption I seek, solidifying
Outward reach, identifying
The answer I found, gratifying
All that I am, crucifying
