Walk on!!

Well today I would like to post on something that is oh so dear to me. I came into contact with a sweet old lady that loves to do poetry and she gave us some copies of her poems and said that we could share them with those that could us it. So this poem is from sweet old Allena Austin from Worland, Wyoming.

WALK ON

Life can be tough,
The road can be rough.
Walk on
Walk on
What seems forever to you and me,
Is but a second in eternity.
Walk on
Walk on

Long may be the road,
Heavy may seem the load.
Walk on
Walk on
Whether it be on sand or stone,
We will never walk alone.
Walk on
Walk on

Our Heavenly Father showers us with
Blessings from above,
He will always send us His love.
Walk on
Walk on
When our journey's at an end,
We will meet our Savior, our Friend.
Walk on
Walk on.

This poem is so amazing. As I was reading this poem it stuck a scripture in my mind. It is found in 2 Nephi 31:20; Wherefore, ye must press forward with a steadfastness in Christ, having a perfect brightness of hope, and a love of God and of all men. Wherefore, if ye shall press forward, feasting upon the word of Christ, and endure to the end, behold, thus saith the Father: Ye shall have eternal life. I've often asked why do we need to continue to keep moving forward, in other words Endure to the End? Well this poem and this scripture shows us why we need to. We need to continue to Walk on or Endure to the End. We don't know how long we have in this life but if we look forward to what our Heavenly Father has in store for us we can receive the Ultimate Goal, Eternal Life.

I hope this poem and scripture helps all of you out to never give up, to continue to press forward, to walk on and to endure to the end, the outcome is so great that we all have in store waiting for us all.
