The End Of The Road Is But A Bend In The Road

-->

We have all been there, when life comes crashing in on us and feels more like an ending.  

Where do we turn for help?  I have found the following poem to be very comforting.  

Jesus promise, "I will be with you always" is mirrored here.

When we feel we have nothing left to give and we are sure that the "song has ended"

When our day seems over and the shadows fall and the darkness of night has descended

Where do we go to find the strength to keep on trying?

Where can we find the hand that will dry the tears that the heart is crying?

There's but one place to go -- and that is to God and, dropping all pretense and pride

We can pour out our problems without restraint and gain strength with Him at our side

And together we stand at life's crossroads and view what we think is the end

But God has a much bigger vision and He tells us it's ONLY A BEND

For the road goes on and is smoother, and the "pause in the song" is a "rest"

And the part that's unsung and unfinished is the sweetest and richest and best

So rest and relax and grow stronger, LET GO  and LET GOD share your load

Your work is not finished ended, you've just come to a "BEND IN THE ROAD."
