My Journey to God

Where He Will . . .

Where do you go when life is troubling?
To your Father’s arms where He will . . .
Lift you up and shower you with love and
Hold His arms out to take your heavy load.
He will say – Let me help, child.

Where do you go when life is joyous?
To your Father’s arms where He will . . .
Laugh with you and be playful
And share in your stupendous happiness!
He will say – Life is good, child.

Where do you go when life is frightening?
To your Father’s arms where He will . . .
Hear your desperate cry of
Abba-Daddy and scatter all your fears.
He will say – You are safe, child.

Where do you go when there is a need?
To your Father’s arms where He will . . .
Remind you to pray for all
And watch for the miracles that will come.
He will say – I hear you, child.

Where do you go when life on earth is finished?
To your Father’s arms where he will . . .
Meet your eyes with all knowledge
And you will kneel for your Crown of Glory!
He will say – Welcome home, child.
