The answers that we are looking for
Hoping we will truly find,
Enter in our searching hearts

And fills our restless minds.
None have the answers at the first--
So at least, we start out the same,
When found,when at whate'er expense
Eased to know, we're glad we came!
Remember don't look North or South

In the East, nor in the West,
Such solutions, geographical are not

In the search for the very Best.
Nor should we look to compare ourselves

Looking for someone worse, or better,
Our Life as such, is no contest
Ourselves only--How do we,the storms weather?
Knowing the answer must be out there
Inside ourselves first, we must look,
Now then we can discern the Problem
God created us, and shows us in His Book!

Up to Him, you must turn your attention
Problem's solved--if Up humbly we'll look!

You write great spiritual poems, David. There is a lot of insight to be found by reading them. Indeed, our life is no contest. I feel torn because I feel like I am "contesting" with everybody else. It must have something to do with my age. Clearly it is important to keep God in mind at all times, and to read the Bible. It will give much-needed wisdom and insight. Thanks.

David, you are truly filled with His wisdom. so many never reach the courageous insight to face their inner truths nor the do they ever know the joy of finding our God. We are truly blessed! You are amazingly gifted!

Very well put.  Especially since we always have so many questions in the first place!
