The long road I am on

   Long distances I have travelled
to outrun who I was. All a mistake.

    Sometimes you really just need to
stand still and allow the storm to take
hold. Crush all that you thought was important.
Down to zero. Rock bottom. The ocean floor.

    Still to rise from this all was hard.
I won't ever say it was easy, far from it
but I have come a long way.

    Yet there is still so much more
I am seeing, learning, believing. Truly
outstanding. All that I was before, not
too much remains. Still you will see
pieces that were buried so deep, now
emerge.

   Such a joy to see parts, good interior,
shining back at me in my mirror. The
confidence of being Jehovah's child is
all I need. Nothing else is worthy to
tear me away from him.

   Even along the way, yes I may stumble.
Check, double check with Jehovah to
make sure conscience is clear. So to
the best I have right now, growing still,
Jehovah sees, listens and hears all
I can give.

   In due time there still will be trials
I must face but placing Jehovah first no
harm, worry shall shake my faith of him.
