God Is Here

There are BIG decisions to be made.  Left or right?  Stay or go?

            There are BIG decisions to be made.  What to do?  Yes or no?

Dear God, remove the fear.  Clear a path that is in Your name.

            Dear God, leave a trail of love through the fire or outside the flame.

I feel His presence.  He takes my hand.  I look up and see His grin.

            Ear to Ear.  God is here.  My fear dissolves as His love flows in.

He picks me up.  I am secure no matter what I choose to face.

            He picks me up.  I am protected by the love in His embrace. 

He starts to run.  We are laughing.  He says “I got you.  You’re okay.”

            I feel His love.  I feel His peace as He playfully asks “Which way?”

I feel His presence.  He takes my hand.  I look up and see His grin.

            Ear to Ear.  God is here.  My fear dissolves as His love flows in.
