Pushed aside by others so long
wondering why life is hard
Jesus says to love thy neighbor
but it seems nobody listens and just wavers.
The woman at the well,He didn't ecnor
What He did was fully restore
we need to love and be loved to
all I wanted was help from you.
isn't it great that Jesus is here
and doesn't take us the way we deserve
His love shows us what we need to do
and its all up to me and you.
Being pushed aside was my life by others
until Jesus spoke and said I'm not like most
I will guide and direct and love no matter what
take my hand and lets walk together
I'll help you see I'm not like bad weather.
So when others push me and band me from their lives
Jesus is my refuge and in Him will I stride.

Hi Betty, this is a really lovely poem and full of sentiment and feeling. I guess if we are called to be like Jesus, we have to experience His feelings and emotions, one of which was to be misunderstood and 'pushed aside' by many. Your poem has blessed me today. Thanks for sharing it. Love Alf x
