Driven with Purpose by Victoria M. Graham

Aimlessly wandering all through my life,

First an infant, a child, a mother, and eventually a wife.

Lost in this world, striving for perfection.

Longing for love, receiving none from any direction.

Going through the motions, I was shipwrecked at sea,

Not knowing how to survive, or how the next night would be.

While being a single mother, with everything resting upon me.

Burned by life, somehow I rose from the ashes,

Sometimes making strides, some days only dashes.

Yet from that shipwreck, I finally made it to shore,

With each passing moment, my faith grew a little bit more.

Now driven with purpose, forever through Christ,

Because I’m walking with the Lord, for He is the Head of my life…
