Oh, My little sparrow,
I have given you My peace
and unto eternity . . .
it will not end or cease.
I have empowered you,
with My eternal grace
but it is up to you
to seek My faithful face.
Oh, My little sparrow,
I will not let you fall
and unto eternity . . .
I’ll hear your every call.
I have given you freedom,
to fly off anywhere
but it is up to you
to trust me with your care.
Oh, My little sparrow,
I have given you My calm
and unto eternity . . .
I will hold you in My palm.
But you must learn to fly,
on your own faithful wings
for you are not My puppet . . .
I hold not, your worldly strings!
~~~~~~~~
Romans 12:2
King James Version
“And be not conformed to this world:
but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind,
that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable,
and perfect, will of God.”

Thank you! Since I first learned of the Lord I was told I wasn’t His puppet that my freewill was what would make or break me . . . and it was up to me to cut the strings to worldly things! ~ Blessings ~
