The Ultimate Tour Guide

It’s amazing how we all agree 

God created the universe 

and everything in it

You and I,

He knew us before we were knit together in our mothers wombs

Yet somehow,

We believe we can journey through life on our own 

by our wisdom 

It’s like visiting a new city without a tour guide 

driving to an unknown destination without a gps

Hoping we would arrive there by chance and on time.

But I tell you, 

We have been sold a lie and 

this keeps us all moving 

round and round 

like hamsters on wheels 

Self this and self that 

blinded by pride and fear

when all we need to do is

call on the ultimate tour guide

for He knows the length and breath and height of everywhere we need to go and do in this life and in the life to come

So, quit the rat race,

this DIY through life

reach out to the only one who would hold your hand and take you 

Whose plans for you are only good and above what you can ever think or imagine

Allow Him to navigate the how’s and why’s 

The ifs and maybes 

And watch how grace unfolds

Do not expect fireworks 

For this Spirit works in quiet spaces for He is really the alpha and omega 

So why not begin and end only with Him and you safe in the hollow of his hand.
