From Isaiah 40:31: “But those who wait for the Lord shall renew their strength, they shall mount up with wings like eagles, they shall run and not be weary, they shall walk and not faint.”
Lost in hidden wilderness
Walking gloomy path, alone
Life’s never-ending circle
Frozen in time’s endless zone
Abandoned without refuge
Searching hellish, barren land
Emptiness speaks with silence
Tireless quest, sinking in sand
Days feel as chilling as nights
Shivering, icy outlook
Hopelessness without promise
Shadow circles, pause to look
Eagle flying overhead
Calling out to thee, follow
Sunrise filling empty heart
Journey no longer hollow
Calvary’s cross stands over
Kneeling upon sacred ground
Tears’ cascading emotions
Life no longer lost, grace found
From John 20:18: “Mary Magdalene went and announced to the disciples, ‘I have seen the Lord’; and she told them that He had said these things to her.”

You really sum up well how we feel in the dark times of life … but, thankfully, God is always there and His grace is always available ❤️

The inspiration for this poem came from Kathy’s blog, “A Time to Share.” Her husband’s painting of an eagle in flight was the catalyst.

Amen! Without God’s grace, my own life would in the midst of eternal darkness. Instead, we are blessed to receive Eternal Life when we accept our Savior.
