Different Roads
Different roadsTwo strangers were walking on separate roads
And God let their roads briefly meet.
They enjoyed the walk together
And grew as individuals in Christ
Then, the road of one suddenly diverged
And one of the strangers kept walking on
The other was stuck starring
And tried to get the attention of the other
But the other was well on their way into an new adventure
And she was stuck on the idea of what could have been
The girl was down and out
Refusing to move on
She shuffled her feet, kicked the dust
And unwillingly walked on
One day she stopped at a familiar intersection
And discovered the faded footsteps of the stranger
She smiled and nodded to herself
And thanked God for designing each step, each bump and bend
She said a silent prayer for the stranger
And cheerfully continued along her way.
