Call your name

Wendy Rice

I lay by still waters.
In fields of green.  
The wind whispers my name.
The spirt carries me.
I don’t know where I am going
I call your name “Jesus”.
I will focus on as you.
I will not be afraid.
I will trust Jesus.
Lead the way.

    To follow Jesus, you must paddle your own canoe.
    Have you ever paddled a canoe ?
    You must know the technique to keep a straight line !
