I wrote this one a while back but actually forgot I had. I'd like to share this with you now. My hopes are that if you are just starting out or perhaps you are stuck on a step that you take a step back and really ask if you are ready to move on. If you can't answer that then you know what you need to do. Look up and ask. It's not a race to see who finishes first, it's how we go along that matters.
Let's do this one stepping stone at a time.
Stepping
Stones to You
Standing here
upon the ground
searching all
around
for ways to
climb to You
Keep falling
no matter what I do
Oh Abba Father
can you help me please?
Standing here
on the bottom step
wondering
which way to climb
Have not found
a path yet
I call out to You
Oh Lord, Will
you help me through?
Up the steps I
leap
Only to fall
back into a heap
Patient I must
be
Standing here
upon this stone
Suddenly
feeling all alone
Abba where are
you?
Please tell me
what to do
Where do I go
from here?
With each step
I climb
more of You I
will find
Help me Lord
to stay strong
through this
battle of good and wrong
Some steps are
too much for me
I cannot see
the next step arise
If I look to
You who is wise
You will pull
me up.
Standing here
upon this step
I can't help
but look up
And though I
have much more to climb
I know one day I’ll bow before
Your throne
I know I can
make it, I am not alone.
Help me Father
God to take each step upon these stones
in faith that
you'll be there waiting for me
with hope that
you'll welcome me
and with love
to You that grows in me.
