I Was at Life’s Dead End Road!

I’ve been to the point where

 I thought my life would end.

I felt alone...  With no one I could

 call “my friend.”

I was at a place where

I felt “trapped within.”

The emptiness I felt...  I really don’t

know where to begin.

I’ve been to what many would call;

 “life’s dead end road.”

 I felt like I was carrying

 “a very heavy load.”

I decided to get down on my knees.

Wondering if anyone were

 listening to me.

I had many discouraging

 thoughts enter my mind.

Any true peace or joy…

 I haven’t been able to find.

I’m taking the time and giving it thought…

What kind of life…  Have I really got?

The things I desired and obtained…

                                    Come and go as quickly as they came.

As a young man, I remember

 hearing of a savior’s love.

A gift of abundant life…

God’s gift from above!

I read in the Bible where Jesus

can give true contentment.

A life filled with true joy, peace and fulfillment.

I ask that you Jesus, will do

 what one else can do.

Cleanse me within,

and make my life brand new!
