of life Here's a poem I wrote after my depression improved. I shared this at our Assembly on 2/8/2004.
The Journey
A horse of black A proud animal A "humble" rider.
I was that equestrian, And we journeyed through The dark veil of depression.
My companion limped Barely able to continue On the steep, uphill climb.
I was too tired to notice Too weary to care Too determined to give up.
In the valley of the darkest shadows He lifted my face And opened my eyes.
God revealed himself to me In a rainbow of light and tears!
The horse was gone. The dark veil was lifted.
My heart became so unburdened That it traveled up and past the rainbow To heights where only angels tread.
All
praise to God whose mercies and lovingkindness know no end Cheri
