Adventure or burdon?
what do you see
When you look at these boulders
strewn before me
............
As kids, my sister and I
would have run to go climb them
perhaps we would have even
climbed down inside them
..............
They look so fun and exciting back then
and when we were camping our cousins joined in
we created elaborate games inside our rock homes
and just layed back enjoying the giant stones
................
Now I am older and the rocks still look fun
I might even climb up on one and set in the sun
But to see so many blocking my path
can be very unnerving...you do the math
.................
How can we ever make it from here to there
The end of the path blocked to me I fear
The path if it were smooth would bring me there fast
But these boulders look so daunting I don't know if I'll last
..................
Perhaps the end of the path is not the prize
Perhaps its the journey...behind each rock a suprize
Why are we in such a hurry each day
to get to the end of the road right away
....................
If we are willing to stop, explore and even pray
We might find God has more in store for us today
So slow down and take a look
inside each cranny and crook
....................
You might be suprized at the strength that you gain
through life's little twists of joy and pain
Ups and Downs and even right under a stone
With God right beside you you're already home
