I set out early in the morning
With the voice of my mother ringing in my head
"My child you will be safe, all you have to do is follow the straight path"
I walk about 5miles
Before coming across a beautiful field made of wool
Yeah wool
Of course I had to check it out
So I moved off the path
Jumped over the small field gates
And then into the field
Suddenly
My leg caught a wool and got tangled
In the process of trying to use my hands the same thing happened
In a minute I was tired and frustrated
Then I realised the more I struggled the closer I got to the bush of thorns nearby
The tip of my nose was practically touching the thorn
Then I realised
If I had not wandered off the straight path
I would not be in this mess
All I could do was silently cry and beg my mom for forgiveness
Even though I believed she could not hear me
Like a flash of lightening
My mom was beside me and carefully freeing me from my entanglement
She then took me home
Bathe me
And made me a delicious meal
While telling me
"It's alright, you can always start the journey again"
I look at her with amazement in my eyes
But what can I say
That's just the way my mother is.

That's the same way our God is. He will let you go on ur way but will give you guides and instructions (the bible) on how to get there. As long as you follow these instructions you will be safe, but once you wonder off, danger comes claiming what is his. But always remember no matter how far you have wandered or how deep you might be in sin, once you have seen the errors in your way and repent by asking God for forgiveness, He helps right away and makes you brand new.

PoetryWhen there's no one to turn to, we tend to turn to the one thing that's almost secrete to us. I turn to my pen and paper. My life might not be all that interesting but why don't u let curiosity get the better of you.
