My Hand in Yours




Your Hand in Mine


Are you ready to let go? Whatever may come…are you ready to let go? Is your head clear of things that suffocated you for so long?You see my fellow traveler; I have been down this broken road many of times. I have seen the hardships and failures, and wondered myself if the road would ever end. I have seen the seasons change, sometimes all too quickly. It's hard to open your eyes at times, to wonder where you're at. Sometimes you run so fast that you miss the hidden beauty the path maker wanted so desperately for you to see. Sometimes the rain pelted so hard, you couldn't see the path a head of you.Have you ever wondered if you are right; if you strayed somewhere between then and now? I have, I have wondered what went wrong. Why it was so easy and then got so tuff. My shoes have become worn and my clothes tattered. My own stubbornness has gotten in the way. Never stopping for a rest, under the many Olive Tree's I've seen along the way.I walk along your side my hand open to your left. But you haven't looked down to find it, sometimes I wonder if you ever will. It is there to tell you that I have walked down this road many times. It yearns to tell you that you are not a lone. I have seen you before my fellow traveler; I have seen the greatness inside of you. Once upon a time you let it shine, giving me someone to look up to, I admired you and still do.
But wonder if you will ever find my hand, letting you know, I have been here too.

I can relate to this...
Thanks for putting something so hard to say into such beautiful words.

...And you will FIND me when you SEEK me with ALL your HEART!
