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
