Thank You

Thank You

Everyday is a blessing
I continue to love life more and more each day
I thank you for everyday I continue to exist
I try to live up to new, greater expectations
But, I find myself failing
Thus I come back to you for guidance

Thank you

I see now again I have fallen off the beaten path
I ask again for your guidance
The road I traveled was bright and glorious
Lacking focus, taking you for granted has me lost again
The light has become dimmer and it is getting dark
The warmth that surrounded me has left
The cold is coming and if I wait it will be too late
I want to run to the small amount of light I see

Thank you

This Path is getting dark and scary
I know this from my lack of commitment
I have come back to make it stronger then ever
I have seen when there was only one pair of foot prints in the ground
I know that you carried then
Walk with me and allow me to continue on
You don't need to carry me, just guide me and I will fallow

Thank you

I know that when I am lost, it is you who will guide me
Taking me under your wing
Thus letting me see the light that guides all those who want to see it
I can see it and it is glorious
I know you are in all of us
Each of us a capable of such wonderful dreams
And such horrible nightmares

    Excellent. Very well balanced, not one word was out of place. It flowed well, and made you think about your own walk with Christ, and how true every word felt. I also think it might of been a little surfaced, it didn't go very deep or creative. Descriptions were average, not very heart-felt, or in-depth. It seamed to lack emotion really. But I really did like it. keep it up.
