God, Please Lead The Way!

I was going through some old notes that I had on facebook this morning hoping that maybe I could find a poem to put up and I came across this poem that I wrote exactly 3 years ago.  When I noticed the date that I wrote it, I knew it was exactly what God would have me post today.  It makes me think of where I was at that time in my life and where I am today.  I have come so far in my life since then and I praise God for that.  Although I still question and pray about where life is going for me sometimes, I find comfort in knowing that God is leading the way!

God, Please Lead The Way

 

I sit here looking at an empty page,

There is so much I want to write on it.

But how do I say what it is I really want to say,

Without feeling stupid or like an idiot?

Who would even care to know,

What is running through my mind.

I just need answers to questions,

I need something as simple as a sign.

I want everything to be right,

And no clue if it ever will be.

If only I could look into the future,

To see what only God has planned for me.

Would it make things clearer inside my head

Or spoil a wonderful surprise?

If only I was a patient person,

If only I were a little more wise.

God, give me the wisdom I desperately seek,

God, give me the patience I need every day.

God, point me in the right direction,

God,  please lead the way!
