Obstacles Blocking The Future

Obstacles are getting in the way

Obstructing the view

Making dreams a little cloudy

Reality is misty

The future is foggy

Don’t know where to step

Scare to move

Can’t see past the challenges

Force to look back

Dreading the future

Looking for a way out

Can’t see

Blinded by the hardships of life

Stuck in the same place

Greeted by depression

The obstacles make the light go out

It is dark

Look backwards and met with guilt of past mistakes

Look forward and met with fear and anxiety

Look down and met with depression, and defeat

There is only one more way to look

Look up and be met with power, love, peace, and joy

Look up and there is light

Look up and there is a plan for the future

Look up and all the obstacles are easier to get around

Look up and trust the Lord's guidance

The only one to follow blindly

Look up and no longer stuck

Look up and dreams becomes reality

Look up the view is better

Look up to see clearer

Look up!

A/N: “I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills, From whence cometh my help.”

‭‭Psalm‬ ‭121‬:‭1‬ ‭KJV‬‬

Love this song!
