Sometimes we look to others instead of to God!
****
It is a difficult road I have taken,
My load is heavy and I am
Forsaken, along this road to
Heaven.
Preachers, teachers, friends,
I look to all to get me in.
Holding my thumb up high,
Hoping for a ride, they wish me
Well and pass me by.
I don’t know how long I can do
This, I cry, I weep, all the rules I
Keep. I run and run, busy, busy,
Barely taking a breath, lest I
Falter and be left.
Everyday I confess, what more
Can I do? Throwing up my hands,
I quit, there is nothing I can do,
It is a gift!
A promise given to us –
“For it is by grace we are saved…
and not of ourselves, it is God’s
gift” Ephesians 2:8,9
