Sometimes life is a ride

We live it best, done in stride

Sometimes things are smooth and grand

Other times there are curves, we didn’t have planned

Then there’s the ordinary day to day

Everything is A-Okay

There are times we may seem to be at a high

Other times a low, asking God, “Why?”

Then there are times we get to just nicely travel straight

An easy path, simple to take

But life is a journey, a ride through time

We don’t always know what God has in mind

Though the best journey we can make

Is the one in which with God we take

If we have Him along for the ride

We learn to take life, all in stride

Until the ride comes to a stop and the journey to an end

We will have had God, until He calls us to be with Him

Forever then, we’ll be at our resting place

As we look upon our Saviors face

The ride and the journey

Psalm 119:105 NIV

Your word is a lamp for my feet, a light on my path.

Isaiah 40:31 NIV

He gives strength to the weary and increases the power of the weak. Even youths grow tired and weary, and young men stumble and fall; but those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength.
They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint.

Hebrews 6:19 NIV

We have this hope as an anchor for the soul, firm and secure. It enters the inner sanctuary behind the curtain, where our forerunner, Jesus, has entered on our behalf. He has become a high priest forever, in the order of Melchizedek.
