Inhaltsangabe

In the process of writing two short collections of light hearted material, (one published and one yet to be published), the author became acutely aware that he could not continue forward without addressing what he considered to be the most important issues of human existence. All of us have asked ourselves the questions, "What is the meaning of life" and "Why am I here"? Some have rejected the idea of an eternal soul, some are undecided, while others are largely unconcerned, but the author has chosen to embrace the concept and run with it. He believes there is a single overriding mission for every individual alive today. The sole purpose of this life is to prepare for the next one, and every person has been given the ability to control his own destiny. When compared to eternity, our lives are like a single knot in a rope that stretches around the world. From the foundation of the earth, a plan has been in place to allow humanity to share the wonders of eternity with the Creator of all things. Those who follow that plan will be rewarded accordingly, while those who prefer to separate themselves from the influence of a Higher Power, will be granted their wish in eternity. If this book convinces one person to follow the plan that leads to redemption, then it will have been well worth the effort.

Chapter One

    Just a Man
    (The Circuit Rider's Lament)


    Help me Lord, I'm just a man
    Help me do the best I can
    Let me choose what's relevant
    When I've convinced myself I can't

    Lord, I know my faith is small
    When I must trek through mountains tall
    And swim the raging river's tide
    To safely reach the other side

    The road I'm on is rough and steep
    With deserts dry and valleys deep
    And when it forks, my steps grow slow
    How can I know which way to go

    I've had my share of pain and grief
    That's almost shaken my belief
    In all that's good and right in life
    When words have cut me like a knife

    At times I travel through the night
    Searching for a guiding light
    To lead me 'til the world awakes
    And light my path 'til morning breaks

    I've failed at everything I've tried
    Help me Lord, I need a guide
    Help me do the best I can
    Remember Lord.....I'm just a man!

           D.R.H.

    What God Can't Do
    (The Circuit Rider's Comfort)


    He's strong but He is gentle too just like the summer wind
    He'll be there when you need Him even closer than a friend
    He even sees the sparrow fall and hears the baby cry
    But there is something He can't do.....He cannot lie!

    He never lies, His eyes are always open and He never sleeps
    His word endures, you can be sure His promises He keeps
