As You Travel Through This Life
by poet720ylvs © 2005

As you travel through this life, it is a journey you will not take alone.
You will meet on your way many people, as they too want to be shown.
Shown a way to answer the questions posed to us each day.
As their only objective is to find solace as the minutes tick away.

They too have their own journey to complete before their life is through.
Or else they will be asking this question, "What was I suppose to do?"
Our life is like reading a book, with voluminous of chapters.
We are the main characters and are the most important of its actors.

As we complete each chapter we may want to continue and proceed on.
But just like reading a book, you might want to wait and start again at dawn.
Our ultimate decision is usually to pick up and to continue.
We begin from where we left off and start a brand new venue.

We tackle those obstacles with a stronger and a revived new strength.
Stopping to rest along the way as we have progressed to another great length.
This is just like life, as who wants to deal with stress?
We know there will be many obstacles and we want to be at our best.

God will always be with us, from the beginning straight to the end.
If our foundation was built on His statutes, He will always be your friend.

Your life when following God's commandments has been proven to be the best.
There will, of course, be less complications and will enable us to stop and rest.

This is not to say that life will be without the concerns of the world.
As life on this earth is just a precursor for what will ultimately be unfurled.
Just know that if you have accepted the Lord Jesus, He is building you a brand new home.
A home like nothing you will ever imagine for God's love for us is so well known.
