God has chosen for us
the hard road.
Bumpy and uneven,
steep and dark.
Parts washed out by life's difficulty.
As we walk
bodies litter the ditches.
People broken
and bleeding
and alone.
We ask,
"Why this hard road, Lord?
Why not the easy way,
Bright and level,
...and uncomplicated?"
"Because, my children,
I too am on this path.
My heart is for the broken
and alone.
If you seek me,
you will find me here, in the darkness.
"The kingdom path is not around
but through suffering.
So grab a lamp
and bring light
to the dark path.
