"RUGGED ROAD!"
© 1998 Patricia L. Carpenter
{Poem Book #3}
Life’s a ‘rugged road’
with ‘rocks’ & ‘hills’ & ‘holes’,
He’ll help you not to fall
or ‘down’ that ‘hill’ to roll.
Those ‘rocks’ will not trip you up
if you’ll ‘look’ to CHRIST,
As He Who ‘lights’ your path
was your ‘ultimate’ Sacrifice!
You will not fall into those ‘holes’
If you give GOD all your controls.
He’ll walk ahead & lead the way
With His ‘Rod & Staff’ to rule your day.
I would not dare to walk
this ‘rugged road’ alone,
I NEED Christ in my life
even ‘before’ I reach His Throne!
He ‘lights’ my way
& ‘lifts’ my feet,
So I will not sink
down into defeat.
Oh, won’t you also ‘walk’ with Him
He’s ‘waiting’ just for YOU!
He ‘Loves’ you very much
& He will always remain ~ True!

PSALM 84:5-7 ~ HAPPY are those who are ‘strong’ in the Lord, who WANT ~ above all
else ~ to FOLLOW Your Steps. When they walk through the ‘Valley of Weeping’
it will become a place of ‘springs’ where ‘Pools of BLESSINGS’ & ‘refreshment’
collect after rains! They will grow constantly in strength & each of them is
invited to ‘MEET’ with The Lord of Zion.
