A LONG HARD ROAD







A LONG HARD ROAD


The SPIRITUAL JOURNEY is a

LONG HARD ROAD=with many

Ups and downs

And that is the HARD TRUTH


But it is UP to us

To stay the course=

And REMAIN in the love

Of God the Father and Jesus


“REMAIN in my love” John 15:9


We have moments of CLARITY

With great love=and we have PERIODS

Of dryness and DOUBT


But we have to

Stay on the ROAD=

We have to follow

The course

We have to TAKE

The journey of life

With God and Jesus


FOLLOW the road=

It is a long hard ROAD-

It is a tough journey


“Enter through the narrow gate-

For wide

Is the gate=and broad

Is the ROAD

That leads to destruction=

And many enter-through it” Matthew 7:13


I have heard people

Say that=they are not

Afraid of COVID=

Because of their CHRISTIAN FAITH

And that they are

NOT afraid to die


But life is a tough journey

And we NEED to live it-

We need to LIVE

With God and Jesus

EVERY MOMENT=of our life

Life is a LONG HARD ROAD


And we need to live it

NO MATTER what comes


FOLLOW the journey of life

With God and Jesus=

For it really is

A LONG HARD ROAD

A very tough journey


“As long as=it is day

We must=do the works=of him

Who sent me” John 9:4


“.......by the Holy Spirit

Sent from heaven=

Even angels LONG

To look into these things” 1 Peter 1:12


RELATIONSHIPS=whether human or divine

Change and grow=

And sometimes

They wither and die


To keep a relationship HEALTHY

REQUIRES an investment

Of our TIME

As well as our honesty and trust


THIS SPIRITUAL RELATIONSHIP=

This spiritual journey

Is long and hard=

Keep your eyes OPEN

For we never know

What is coming IN THE FUTURE


What fears-disappointments=

Or aspirations=for your life=

Can you SHARE with

God and Jesus today?


“Nevertheless=the one who receives instruction

In the word=SHOULD SHARE

All good things-

With their instructor” Galatians 6:6


SHARE YOUR LIFE AND FAITH

With God and Jesus=

For it is=A LONG HARD ROAD


In Jesus' name=and in the name=of our ALWAYS SHARING FATHER!
