A Bend in the Road

Sometimes we come to life's crossroads,

And we view what we think is the end

But God has a much wider vision

And he knows that it's only a bend –

The road will go on and get smoother

And after we've stopped for a rest,

The path that lies hidden beyond us

Is often the path that is best.

So rest and relax and grow stronger,

Let go and let God share your load

And have faith in a brighter tomorrow

You've just come to a bend in the road.

("A Bend in the Road," by David Jeremiah)
