Learning to Walk

There are days it feels as though we stand before a chasm,

one foot outstretched.  

But its the other days that leave me unsettled now.

For isn't every day uncertain, except for God?

Looking back I shudder, at all the years spent, foot outstretched.

Unaware.

Today, Thanks to God, I walk, eyes on my Savior.  

I look away, I fall.  

Looking up, there's His hand reaching down.

Anything in Jesus Name

Oh how my heart aches

as I think of my home.

Those whom inhabit my memories,

voices that walked with me through the Cotton.

Was I asleep, living a dream, thin as tissue paper?

Am I awake now?  My soul bleeds, scabs torn off. 

Oh God I cry out for those I love.  I plead.

Have you not said I can ask anything in Jesus name?
