My heart,
God’s hands
my love
He commands.
My time,
God’s ways
my fruit
He weighs.
My soul,
God’s grace
my sin
He erased.
My hope,
God’s plan
my trust
He can.
My faith,
God’s aid
my life
Jesus saved!
~~~~~~
Ezekiel 36:26
A new heart also will I give you,
and a new spirit will I put within
you: and I will take away the stony
heart out of your flesh, and I will
give you an heart of flesh.

For every trial,
God has a purpose
He has a plan . . .
before they surface.
He sends us tests,
deserving or not
to see how much
grace we have got.
It is up to us,
how we will react
whether our troubles
our faith will impact.
Some choose to grow,
resentful and bitter
some opt to make
their faith in God bigger.
For every trial,
God sends to us . . .
He’ll reveal the purpose
as we increase our trust!

2 Peter 3:18
“But grow in grace,
and in the knowledge
of our Lord and Saviour
Jesus Christ.
To him be glory both
now and for ever. Amen.

God has a purpose,
He had a plan
before our lives
even began.
He knows all things,
for our own good
will work out
as He said they would.
But, we must love,
God and His ways
we must have a heart
that yields and obeys.
We need to know,
what is God’s will
we need to wait
and to be still.
God has a purpose,
but, it’s up to us
to heed the calling
of faith and trust!

Jeremiah 29:11
“For I know the thoughts
that I think toward you,
saith the Lord,
thoughts of peace,
and not of evil,
to give you an expected end.”

Faith and trust,
go hand in hand
we need both
to firmly stand.
For without one,
the other dies
faithless trust
is hope’s demise.
Faith and hearing,
go together
so does reading
God’s written letter.
For without hearing,
faith will cease
without God’s Word
there is no peace.
Faith and sight,
is not about seeing
it is in all things . . .
to be God believing!

Lord, I need Your guidance,
I need to know Your will
I need You to show me
how to trust, when to be still.
I need sharp receptors,
that will always hear
Your voice of wisdom
whispering in my ear.
I need clear lenses,
that will always see
the path and the way
You’ve laid out for me
I need keen awareness,
that will always edify
the light in Your Word
so the truth, I’ll abide by.
Lord, I need You to guide,
I need You to lead . . .
I need You to show me
when to listen, how to heed!

He made us,
into something new
and we must believe
this to be true.
Lest to doubt,
we will succumb
and our faith . . .
will be humdrum.
He is planning,
a new path for us
and we must always
in Him trust.
Lest to temptation,
we will surely fall
and our faith . . .
will be weak and small.
He is working,
out His perfect plan
and we must believe
to leave it, in His hand.
Lest to fear,
we will give in
and our faith . . .
will start to dim.
He is working,
in You and I
and He will not quit
until the day we die!

Sometimes I don’t understand,
God’s plan or path for me
so by faith I will follow . . .
trusting Him for what I can’t see.
Sometimes I can’t envision,
where God wants me to go
so by faith I will follow . . .
believing the way He will show.
Sometimes, I do not hear,
what God desires me to do
so by faith I will follow . . .
praying He will give me a clue.
Sometimes I don’t get,
just what I am to do
so by faith I will follow . . .
til His light shines through
Sometimes I do not know,
God’s path and plan for me
so by faith I will follow . . .
knowing He’ll help me to see!
