 ~I Am Learning, Lord~ My life has taken many falls And tumbles 'long the way. The many trials have left me In a sure state of dismay.  For with each trial, I tried alone To tend, and soothe, and mend, Instead of giving them to God- And on Him just depend... But, I am learning, Lord. It seems that I was determined To carry all the load. I longed for smoother pathways. Yet, I walked a rocky road.  Little did I understand, God waited patiently To pave a new beginning With a better life for me. But, I am learning, Lord. It took a real disaster To bring me to my knees; To finally call upon the Lord And say, "God help me, please."  He can, with no delaying, With strong arms that could hold- The weight of all my burdens; He gladly took the load. And, I am learning, Lord. What a needless cross I carried, All because I could not see- What a friend I have in Jesus, And the love He has for me. Peace I find when troubles hover, Though' the outcome is unknown. For if yet the road is rocky, I won't walk it all alone. For, I am learning, Lord. ~Author: Unknown
