Life is filled with mystery
As we travel down its road
Another bend, a discovery
It is like finding the mother lode.
A person, nature, a creature
Throws your mind into gear
Gradually unfolding, a feature
Lifting your load, your care
Comparison or contrast, magnified
Others have traveled this road
Their travels gradually described
Victorious! Jesus carried the load.
Unravel the thoughts, unfolding
Puzzle pieces, begin to fall in place
A picture soon emerges, beholding
Jesus! Displayed, in all His grace!
So, why worry, why fret or despair?
When the trials arrive, petulant?
At the bend in the road, ‘No Fear’
The Savior! Jesus! Resplendent!
