Religious/ Inspirational: "The Course I'm Taking"

The Course I’m Taking

Although my weary eyes are cloudy and blurred by the tear drops that are trying to push their way out,
I still make every attempt to navigate down this road called life.

I know that if I wasn’t a child of God,
my life would be filled with so much more pain and strife.

So I continue with the course I’m taking.
The devil tries to gain an upper hand in the attempts of my soul’s breaking.

But, my story is not written by me.
I am merely an instrument of my heavenly father you see.

He has granted me a path and given me the navigation tools,
and when I am lost he reminds me of all of life’s rules.

Perseverance, prayer and a strong faith in the unseen
will navigate your course to a destination you won’t believe.

It happens to all of us, where we prepare to go toe to toe with life as our opponent in the battle ring,
and our adrenaline rushes as we hear the “ding! ding! ding!”

But, before we can stop life from its first swing to our cores
we must take off the boxing gloves - and realize the battle is not yours.

At times, you may make an attempt and find that discouragement is what you receive back,
you didn’t do it their way so talent you must lack.

At times, you may struggle through one of life’s situations and through numerous observations you come to the same realization that you are just tired...of  life’s same results.

A wise person once said, “Insanity- is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results.”

Well, if you just try God and let him navigate the course you are taking that seems so tough - and let him use you as his instrument to sound your trumpet of praise then maybe life wouldn’t be so rough.

Don’t do the same thing you been doing,
try God and I promise your life won’t be the same. 
Everything around you will be rearranged. 

Those people who tried to discourage you will be your footstool
as you navigate to your heavenly destination. 

Those life’s struggles won’t be stumbling blocks,
they will be building blocks when you reap the rewards of determination. 

Your situation on the course you're taking is going the way it is now,
because you are trying to navigate. 

Instead, sit back...let Go of the wheel and let God drive....and watch how quickly you dry those weary eyes.
