When you just want to smooth the road and take the pain and uncertainty away!
I see your scraped knees
I have caught and counted
your tears
I hold your scuffed heart
tenderly
but don’t run ahead
of Me.
Don’t peel back the petals
of the delicate
blossom
don’t force the flower
to bloom
becoming takes time
don’t run ahead
of Me.
You remember you learned from
your mistakes
they are learning from
theirs
I know your heart hurts
for their pain
but they grow in the dark
so don’t run ahead
of Me.
I know you are tired and
heartsick
I know how long you
have prayed
winds make the roots
reach deeper
so don’t run ahead
of Me.
You want to fix it, solve it,
plan it
that’s not for you to do
your job is to trust,
in the silence I’m
working
and don’t run ahead
of Me.
