The Walk
I took a walk today,
down by the lake,
spring fed
Lying cool in the morning sun.
I walked through trees, tall and stately,
saw wild flowers, a few cattails,
and marveled at what God had done.
The simple things, the path once cleared,
tangled now with creeping vines
Still well marked by someone who knew the way
Inviting all to come, walk this way today.
My thoughts turned to mansions,
beautiful, serene and bright
I walked on in comfort and peace,
blessed by the morning light
Compared to forever
Today took no place
'Twas but a gracious reminder of
His Eternal Embrace

Thanks to Stacey Nagy for the beautiful lake scene
Written in early 80's but still a timely thought
