Life goes on and everything must someday come to an end,
Whether it is a sunny day, or a relationship with a friend.
Some things crush our heart, so we feel we can't go on.
We find that it is hard to face the coming dawn.
We may have worked long and hard, at a job we love;
When one day we are let go, by the boss above.
As we watch our children grow, and see them test their wings,
Do we dread the letting go, or does our own heart sing?
Marriage is a pleasure; you give someone your heart.
But what do you do, if one day, the marriage falls apart?
Or if someone you love loses their good health;
What if bad decisions steal away your wealth?
There are so many changes, that we face each day.
If things suddenly end, will we be okay?
Sometimes the end is just a new chapter in our life;
Even though it often brings to us great strife.
When the ending becomes the beginning, we'll find we can go on,
Slowly, through the healing, God will make us strong.
One day we may look back at the places we have been,
And see the wisdom of the ending, when God did intervene.
Though the ending may be painful, and so full of strife,
Cling to the Savior, for He cares about our life.
So when the ending becomes a beginning, see what God will do,
For He loves His precious children, and I know He'll see us through.
My Comments: I have been through a lot of changes over the past 5-6 years. I feel like my life has pretty much changed in every area. So, I look for a little stability. Unfortunately, we learn that sometimes the areas that are feeling the most secure are the very ones that we need to give back to the Lord and release our hold. What a challenge this is.
