A PURPOSE

Each life has a purpose,
Each purpose a plan;
Great minds find a reason
To do what they can...
A hope for tomorrow,
A task for today,
Through troubles or sorrow...
Each trial on life's way...
A purpose for living,
A test you must meet,
Accepting each challenge,
The bitter, the sweet...
Cast aside every problem,
Rise above endless fears,
Keep the dream you are dreaming,
Wipe away hurtful tears...
Understanding - forgiveness,
A soul that knows peace,
The joy of believing
As heartaches then cease...
The courage that's needed
To travel each mile,
A purpose unequaled -
A life that's worthwhile.
