I am hoping that this #poem will encourage you in your walk with #Jesus...

This Path Unwinding

Walking down this old broken path,
The journey long and unforgiving
I wonder if it will ever end,
I wonder if these wounds will ever mend.

This path unwinding

The cracks in the path remind me,
The scars on my body remind me,
Oh those horrid thoughts, ever so tempting.

This path never seems to end,
The path and my past, they almost seem to blend,
Oh how I only wish, I wish to cast these past memories away.

This path unwinding

I see a light,
It is ever so bright,
What is this feeling I suddenly get?
Hope? Courage? The will to go on?
The light pulls me in, it takes me away from sin.
I close my eyes, thinking it is just a dream.

A hand with the touch of eternity closes over mine,
I open my eyes expecting to see the same old path.
I see something unfamiliar as it begins to shine.
He looks at me and smiles.

This new path before me goes on for miles,
Still holding my hand,
He pulls me along and cheers as I try to keep up.

This path before me will never break,
Never crack,
Never fade away.

Forever and always, we will make this path known to all,
Now follow me my Son, and let us make haste for eternity.
