My Journey - A Christian Poem

My Journey - The Lord Guides Me

By: Yollie Bunag

This Christian poem follows the theme of the first one I wrote titled "Who Am I" which is an ever loving tribute to the Almighty Father.

Life here on earth is a journey, thus we are mere travelers. It is filled with ups and downs, happiness and sorrows, challenges and success. This is to test our faith and conviction, to put our hope and trust on our Almighty Lord, who is always there to guide us...till we reach the end of our journey--our salvation and the promised new earth and new heaven.

My Journey

The Lord Guides my Way

Ahh, as I set my eyes on the horizon

Warm breeze of air touches my soul

To wonder how this wonderful sensation

Came in to be for creatures to enjoy

Love as they say is a wonderful feeling

Surrounds by the serenity of life

As I glimpse the path of my future

I know that the Lord guides the way

Yet as I leave my beloved homeland

Tears fell across my face

For I left a part of my being

To where I was created from

I know not what lies ahead

To journey to a foreign land

A land that knows no boundary

For the soul to wander around

As I face the challenge in life

Brave as I may be, but my soul needs strength

A strength that only my Lord could give

For He knows He's the Father of my soul

I seek not the wealth of this world

Nor what it can provide for humanity

Though I find it abounds with treasure

But the treasure in heaven that I long for

This journey of mine hasn't been so easy

With all the ups and downs that life's provide

Yet I know that a strong hand holds me

Until now I still stand firmly

I may still be journeying more

To a land I know not where

Praying that the words of God

Shall be there to nourish my soul

Somehow, someday when the time has come

For only God knows what lies ahead

When this journey of mine shall come to end

Bringing with me the promised salvation

My Journey With God

Barbara Frone (Author)

"Christians all over the world are struggling because they are either forcing themselves to "do right" and have lost their joy, or they are just going to church on Sunday and not thinking too much about God during the week. With the simple and straightforward message to seek God, Barbara Frone's My Journey with God is the author's personal testimony about how God reached into her heart and showed her that all she needs is him. This book is a blueprint on how to really get to know God, inviting readers to grow closer to God and really get to know him, realizing how much he loves you and wants a relationship with you.

And ye shall seek me, and find me, when ye shall search for me with all your heart.

Jeremiah 29:13

Blessed be the LORD God, the God of Israel, who only doeth wondrous things. And blessed be his glorious name for ever: and let the whole earth be filled with his glory; Amen, and Amen.

Psalms 72:18-19"

In Search of God - My Journey

Tina Ketch (Author)

In searching for tomorrow we often set today aside. Only in looking back on yesterday do we see our dilemma. Life is an experience of ever propelling motion. Yet some people insist on getting stuck. This book will enable you to see, feel and experience beyond your box of societal beliefs.

It sometimes is the fear that we have that makes us want to believe what we had been taught as a child. The fear and intrepidation that something can and will happen if we stray from our parents beliefs. But what if - what if there is something "else" out there that seems to ring true to you. A feeling that things are just not right and perhaps a light has been shining on you that you hadn't seen before. Life, experiences and beliefs are individual not collective nor are they to be dogmatic. Hold to what you have and let the fear pass as you explore your on heart, mind and soul for your own truths. This is what I have done in this book as I open myself to the possibility that God is "ALL" not just him.
