God may not give us an easy journey to the Promised Land,
but He will give us a safe one.
-Boner
O Lord, every time I assume that I know the direction that my life is taking, You change the direction. I believed that we would spend our retirement in our home on McKee Road but we moved a thousand miles away to a 42 acre farm on a gravel road in Missouri. There I settled in, planted a huge garden, made lots of new friends, and discovered my Shalom-Shalvah on Windmill Farm. Little did I know that You would move us back across the country to Delaware once again. We spent the pandemic with our family and waited 4 years for a home of our own once again. Now with less than a year in that home I find myself alone. Again, something that was never on my radar screen.
Lord, I’ve come this far by walking with You. I’m not turning back now.
Too many miles behind me
Too many trials are through
Too many tears help me remember
There’s just too much to gain to lose
Too many sunsets lie behind the mountain
Too many rivers my feet have walked through
Too many treasures are waiting over yonder
There’s just too much to gain to lose
I’ve crossed the hot burning desert
Struggling the right road to choose
But somewhere up ahead, there’s cool, clear water
And defeat is one word I don’t use
Too many sunsets lie behind the mountain
Too many rivers my feet have walked through
Too many treasures are waiting over yonder
There’s just too much to gain to lose
