Take His Hand

by Maria Lisa Polegatto

Be open to the possibilities all around you
From the flow of life in the hustle and bustle 
To the quiet moments of tranquility in nature
Take a look around and let your soul out to play
Are you allowing yourself to grow?
What you take in around you can distract you
Or it can open your soul to yearn for more
When you yearn, you learn
Go into nature to see how His magic interconnects
Us to everything from the meniscal to that bigger than life
Sometimes it is painful changing your status quo
But when it is divinely lead….
Oh what moments are to be held!
When we hold back and fear takes hold
It simply delays the process 
We all get stuck in the daily drum roll
Let the beat of your own drum resound louder
Deep within your soul is a yearning 
Allow your sprit to experience it
To show you how life can flow with delight
God doesn’t lead you to greatness to have you fall
He leads you to higher soul knowledge for your highest good
See the beautiful flower protected in the lushness of foliage
He is reminding you of your beauty and His protection 
Take His hand on the path less travelled
Allow your yearning to beat in the forest of life.
