Treasures Along the Way

We may lament our grief and pain
Sometimes we wander to a very dark lane

The trials and challenges exhaust us now
Solutions, resolutions? We ask, how?

The path seems to only be more steep
Our anxiety and concerns rob our sleep

Then we remember there are others nearby
With open hearts and discerning eyes

All we had to do was reach and ask
‘Twas not a difficult, demanding task

Sharing our hearts in new ways
Lightens the burdens of our days

Giving, receiving, two-way street
Opens friendships, real and sweet

For all we know, these friends were only waiting
To share with us, their own hearts breaking

Look up, wake up, look around
Deep relationships can be found

Magical synergy can now reveal
God sent these friends, to help us BOTH heal

Love and friendship entwine with our soul
God’s love is what makes us whole
