Future

Future

Future, a word that should give hope and joy
To me, it seemed the other way around
School, work or even marriage
To relax, and enjoy life, was not to be found

Never achieving the goal of doing well
Always something missing, never good enough
Became like a negative perfectionism
I won't try anything anymore, it's too tough

On a conference, one brief moment, fear was gone
Only the presence of God the Father
Hope was born, a possibility to change was there
But events got only harder

God led me to another church
Fulfilling a wish from the past
To learn a spirit guided walk
To grow in worship at last

The problem of future wasn't solved
Heaven still seemed so far
More and more the Father spoke
With peace and hope, that's how My thoughts are
