Life’s Path © Kathy Armijo, November 2011 The path I believed was my destiny Was to be sunny and bright Filled with laughter and every imaginable delight The path He chose for me While still sunny and bright Sometimes leaves me fretting into the night I close my eyes and try to sleep Still, I want to continue the ‘discussion’ Asking Him for clarity or to make it go away Oft-times I beg and plead for a resolution That is to MY liking … Bartering to get my way He could easily give in to me But, what would that accomplish Would it make me stronger? Or, make me weaker? *Finally,* when I get an inkling or perhaps it is my own ‘spin’ Into what the *plan* is There is an immeasurable inner calmness He who knows what is right Has given me much to contemplate The choice is mine … to decide which path I take Life’s path may not be what I wanted for myself I may not like the road I need to take I may fight it every step of the way it, But I would truly have no other life *For I know on life’s path… … ….* *He is always there holding my hand …* *Reminding me that He is my Shepherd …* *I am His lamb …* *Guiding and helping me stay on His righteous path*

I often say that when I argue with God, guess who wins.
Just reading your words brings me closer to you.
Good to see you back.
Love you.

We must all choose our own path.

I find it fascinating that you call a new bridge, old.
Just up road the bridge was built in 200 AD, we never think of it as old or otherwise as it spans the river. It's just the route home after night at pub.
