Inspired By A Friend


Don’t be held back By fear; Nor heartache; Nor doubt; Nor trouble; Nor pain; Nor sorrow; Nor grief; Nor worry. Different words Yet they tell the same story All of them remind Of hurts and experiences to be left behind You’ve come to far to dwell on those days You’ve grown and you realized things do change Of course you won’t forget; you really never do But you don’t have to drag all your baggage with you. Experience God, talk to Him Accquire some peace and just be still Listen to Him; He speaks back He’ll help you get yourself on track So instead of bad thoughts, focus on good Remember waking up in the morning; Taking a new breath each day; God starts it all; so give thanks and pray So move forward In joy; In love In happiness In delight In excitement In elation In pleasure And in anticipation Different words, Yet they’ll tell the same story So move forward; don’t look back No pillars of salt to be left in your tracks
