Let Go Of The Stone So burdened by life's heartaches my spirit weaped and moaned, I pleaded,"Jesus lift my load! Said he "Let go the stone!" Now asking what the words could mean,and feeling all alone. Once more the Savior calls to me,"My child,"Let go the stone!" Prayed I to him more earnest still,"Help me to understand!" The words you speak confuse me Lord,I'm just a mortal man. So tenderly speaks he again,"Child you are not alone! "Why lay you down your load to me,yet steal away a stone?" Then draws my Savior closer still unto my searching heart, At last the words he spoke to me ring clearly in my soul. Lord,now I see and understand, at last my eyes are shown, For you to lift our heavy load we must lay down "all stones". [This message has been edited by rainchild (edited 04-23-2000).] |

I love it! So true it is! It's easy to say Let Go and Let God, but it is a hard task for us to do. We always have to hang onto something don't we? Happy Easter! |

There's always something we're holding on to. My prayer is " take it all,Lord"! Great poem. Ellie 02 |

Such a needed subject, so well put in your thoughtful writing! Often I turn it all over to Him, then 5 minutes later I'm thinking of one more way I could try to fix it, so I'm guilty of taking stones back. Such foolishness! Thank you for writing and sharing this with us. |

Thank you for another uniquely expressed poem-dealing with a subject and perhaps a weakness that we can all identify-like been there, done that! Your conversational style works well in this poem. David |
