The road up hill

"How beautiful on the mountains are the feet of those who bring good news, who proclaim peace, who bring good tidings, who proclaim salvation, who say to Zion, "Your God reigns!" NIV Isaiah 52:7

When I have sight and walk with God, I see
All truth, all light; with images, I'm free
For there is something deep inside of me
That wants to grow, my vision is now free.

Reflections of my soul are cast on me
And only God's Creation I now see
I speak with confidence so very bold
With love in me, I cannot hide my Gold.

For truth is clear; no images are blurred
And clearly no words spoken now are slurred
An awesome state, a fate, God's Open Way
And as I listen, I leave night for day.

As God's true love swells deep inside my soul
New sunshine warms my every step, I'm whole
Surrounded by earth's dark and fearsome maze
Alone in fiery majesty, I blaze.

But then .... I hear a voice say, "peace be still"
Come now My Child; you've found the road uphill.

The road uphill.

BRAVO!!! Oh Newell, I couldn't agree with you more, I believe that there is no comforting feeling more convincing than knowing life is a road uphill and we all realize how far we've went up already, looking down without vertigo and understanding it's not that much far! (big hugggsssss) This is fabulous, sweet friend, God Bless You, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Newell, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton
