I WALK WITH GOD


I walk with God.
Sometimes others follow,

Other times I am alone.
Occasionally, the path ahead is clear,

But usually it is obscured.
It is enough to be beside Him.

 
I walk with God.
At times I’m unwavering,

Other times I hesitate.
Then it appears that we

Travel in circles for a while
Beforeprogressing with direction.

 
I walk with God,
Though sometimes He carries me.

Infrequently, we talk.
Mostly we communicate silently.

There are times when I stumble,
But He keeps me from falling.

 
I walk with God.
Following Him requires devotion

To His way of wandering,
At times it is difficult

To stay close enough to see Him.
Sometimes I watch His back,

Other times I hold His hand.

 
I walk with God.
When He shows me things

Along the way, I am in awe.
When I perceive my own smallness

Next to Him, I am humbled.

 

I walk with God.
Sometimes we stand still

And I have to wait for Him to move.
At times I feel I can’t go on,

And He patiently waits for me.

 

I walk with God.
My road with Him

Is different than any other’s,
Yet sometimes they intersect.

Then I understand what it means
To share a walk with God.
