OF HOPE, AND STRENGTH Scared to begin this journey Apprehensive, uncertain of what’s to come This is a road never before travelled Unfamiliar territory, unknown challenges Some days begin with hope Excitement of what can lay ahead Other days, fear and anxiety Weighed down by disappointments of days past 365 days, that’s how long the journey is What will be, what may be I know not yet What I do know, that which gives me hope On this journey, I will not walk alone He walks with me, before me He knows the end, the one who leads me Though curved and crooked the path may seem My God leads, whose way is perfect And thus I find hope..new strength! ~~~~~~~~~~ Apphia 11
