This is a picture I
took of my
own footprints in the sand.
The
sea washes them away so fast!
I wanted to
always remember
the time I stood
there,
~Barefoot~
~Warm Pacific
waters gently~
~Bathing my poor tired
busy feet~
Yes, I am flat
footed!
I'm surprised you noticed.
Perhaps
it's carrying the heavy load
That's been my
cross to bear all these years.
~But I
wouldn't change a thing~
And that is a strange
thing to say
When you have made as many
mistakes
As I have!
But we are a sum total
of all our experiences.
~The GOOD
Ones~
~And The BAD~
And all of that has
brought me
To where I am today.
And I can
marvel at the way the Lord
Made all my
crooked roads straight
How I have learned,
through Him,
And over time
~What true
love is~
How to be happy in any
circumstance
How to accept what He has so
graciously offered
How to live my life
unashamed,
Focusing on the truth
as I know it,
Learning to love beyond
measure,
Acquiring some very good
friends
Yes, these are my
footprints
In the sand
On a dreamy
island
Where God took command
So, in
the Name of Jesus
Forever let me
stand
