Guidance

LESLIE TAYLOR STOW

No thought of mine shall fetter thee,
Nor human will prevent
Thy going forth where God will lead
To give thee sweet content.

I cannot bind by wish of mine—
I would not if I could—
God governs thee, and tenderly
Directs thy path toward good.

For good through all predominates,
By Love's infinity;
Unhampered by the plea of earth,
Truth guides unerringly.

This guidance is assured to all,
However fierce the storm,
If we but yield our selfishness
And to God's will conform.

We'd love to hear from you!
