It's Not Always Easy

A Poem of Faith

For Judy…God knows why, and that’s all that matters…

It’s not always

Easy

The directions

We are lead

The roads we take

Often rocky

The mountaintops so

Far away

But there’s

Hope

Greater

Than the pain.

There are often

Detours

Along the way

Directions

That aren’t

Part of our plan

But in the pain

Reach out

And take

His hand.

There are maps

We try to follow

But only one way

That leads us where

We need to go

A faith that Carrie’s

Us through

The heaviest of

Storms.

Follow the path

Reach out the hand

And even in

The darkness

You’ll always find a way.
