Life is a highway by Michelle Godines


Life is a Highway

Lord, I find myself taking all the wrong exits on this highway called life.
Why are there so many loops and bridges?
I’m scared to miss the exits you desire for me to take.
So I give you the wheel.

I call shot gun. -Right beside you God.
But I find this seat hard and uncomfortable.
And so I jump to the backseat. Where I can see you at work in my life
-but I’m only watching….not doing anything about it.
I’m a horrible back seat driver, always trying to call the shots.
Acting like I know all about the road.
Fearful and lost in pride.

Then you hush me.
You leave me in awe.
I was lost I the hustle and bustle.
But now, all I see is you.

Sometimes this seems like a cycle.
Jump in the passenger seat then I’m back in the back seat.
Lord, help me to break this cycle.
My ignorance is shameful.
This is my prayer oh Lord!

I love you. Thank You!
Love Michelle
