To Truly Move On

.
To truly move on
   in our lives with Christ,
We have to let Him pull ashore
   the weights we cast into the deep
      to keep us anchored where we have
         always laid ashore,
Burn the ships¹ we have always
   sailed upon to reach the lands
      where we thought happiness must
         be buried,
And break the shovels
   we have long depended on
      to dig however deep necessary
         to find the most elusive of all
            treasures.
 

¹ 1 Kings 19, and an image borrowed from
the movie Unsung Hero, depictng the
story of the Smallbone family when they
left their homeland of Australia to find
God's will for them in the United States,
and in the song by the same title sung by
For King and Country
