For All the Grads: What Life is About!
Looking for help as you step out into the scary new world?
Here's a Grandma's advice:
Wow!
So many places!
Directions to go!
Which path should you follow?
How do you know?
You could go south, or go north, east or west.
How can you be sure which direction is best?
South could be sending you too far away.
North might lead someplace you don’t want to stay.
East might go nowhere and west be too tough.
How do you pick when you don’t know enough?
Your head's in a whirl!
There are too many ways!
Yet you have to decide how to plan for your days.
It's too big a problem. You're not fit to choose.
It's too big a decision. There’s too much to lose!
But, wait. Here's the answer: You don't need to know.
There's Someone else planning which way you should go.
Someone Who’s smarter—Who’s been there before.
And His plans for your path will give you much more
Than anything you could dream up on your own.
You just need to relax. You’re not in this alone.
If you reach out your hand He will take it and fly
To a future much bigger than you’d think to try.
Much better than those in your wildest of dreams!
More awesome than any direction now seems.
He'll go flying right past all your questions and fears,
With His love in your heart and His song in your ears.
When you come to the end you will laugh, and you'll rest.
For you'll know then, for certain, you've chosen the best.
See, the best is a Person, not a place or a plan.
And the way there is clear when you’re holding His hand.
Wow!
So many blessings He has up ahead.
Just rest in His hands, and relax, and be led.
Your life will not always be easy or fun,
But it will be good when it’s all said and done.
Just remember, whatever life offers to you
If you wonder which option to choose to pursue
Here’s a very big hint that will give you a clue:
It’s not “what” you know that matters. It’s “Who.”
