To Follow

To Follow
In the way that He leads me,
In sunlight and shadow,
'Cross mountain and valley,
My choice to follow.

In the way that He leads me,
His steps my way show,
With grace for the journey,
My joy to follow.

I wrote this poem a while back. I've been thinking of journeys lately. Much of my life journey is the result of my choosing, and some of my choices have not turned out the way I expected. Some of the most difficult parts of my journey were not my choice at all, but even in those areas I can still trust my way to Jesus. While the problems don't disappear, He still gives me the opportunity to have peace and joy. It's my choice.
