A Promise of A Future

Like Abraham, like Isaac,
like Jacob, even like Moses
God’s gift to us
our hope like theirs
a promise of a future
a reward, a legacy
yet to come to fruition

Humble children
as we all are
wanting to see it now
needing to touch
lacking patience
saved by grace
faith in God

Toiling on in our lifetimes
not knowing the master’s plan
believing he will guide and protect us
leading us, ever
in that future
to that holy promised land
