Merge ~
Lord, show me Your will,
keep me on the right course
teach me to trust You
as my navigation source.
Lead me in Your truth,
guide me all my days
give me Your direction
in all of my ways.
Instruct me to wait,
until Your ready for me
grant me Thy patience
till it’s Your will I see.
Train me to follow,
after Your every deed
offer me Your wisdom
to see You’re all I need.
Enlighten my soul,
to Your every urge . . .
keep me in Your sight
until our paths merge!
~~~~~~~
“Shew me thy ways,
O Lord; teach me thy paths.
Lead me in thy truth, and teach me:
for thou art the God of my salvation;
on thee do I wait all the day.”

Be Not Downcast ~
Don’t be discouraged,
be not overly concerned
for while you’re waiting
there’s much to be learned.
For waiting brings about,
lessons of obedience
so that you may have
for Jesus a radiance.
Don’t be disheartened,
be not too disquieted
God is not done with you
His work isn’t completed.
For He has a lot of things,
He has to remold in you
so while you sit and wait
let go and let God do.
Be not discouraged,
neither be downcast
for God is teaching you . . .
how to have faith steadfast!
~~~~~~~~
Rest in the Lord,
and wait patiently for him:
Being confident of this
very thing, that he which
hath begun a good work
in you will perform it until
the day of Jesus Christ:

Waiting For Answers ~
When for answers,
I have to sit and wait
I find with myself . . .
having a great debate.
I questions if it’s just,
my will I’m praying for
or will I wait for God
to open the right door.
When for feedback,
I have to wait to hear
I listen for God . . .
to whisper in my ear.
I start to think if it’s just,
myself I’m talking to
or is God telling me . . .
what I should go and do.
When for answers,
God has me waiting
I have learned it’s not . . .
worth my debating!
~~~~~~~~
The Lord is good
unto them that wait
for him, to the soul
that seeketh him.

Knowing How To Wait ~
Knowing how to wait,
on God is a must . . .
for it’s when we learn
how in Him to trust.
We need to remain calm,
instead of losing it
we need to be quiet
both in heart and spirit.
Knowing how to be still,
is a requirement
for it’s when we become
on God more reliant.
We need to stay cool,
not lose our composure
we need to slow down
so fear doesn’t takeover.
Waiting on the Lord,
is the best way to cope
for it is the only way
to find peace and hope!
~~~~~~~
I wait for the Lord,
my soul doth wait,
and in his word do I hope.

To Busy To Be Still ~
Often we find ourselves,
too busy to stay still
that we become careless
searching for God’s will.
Our lives are so chaotic,
obsessively constricted
that our time alone with God
is neglectfully restricted.
Often we find ourselves,
on God not at all waiting
and our lives become
discouragingly frustrating.
Our days run together,
weeks become but a blur
that we cannot even sense
when the Holy Spirit stirs.
Often we find ourselves,
in a headlong, frantic rush
when God would rather instill . . .
His stillness into us!
~~~~~~~~~
Be still,
and know
that I am God:

Waiting and Biding ~
Waiting,
is just plain no fun
biding . . .
isn’t easily done.
But, God tells us,
to be still and quiet
to make daily prayer
a part of our diet.
Waiting . . .
can take so long
patience . . .
takes being strong.
But, when we follow,
Jesus’ teachings . . .
God will answer
all of our pleadings.
Waiting . . . .
is a faith trusting thing
bidding . . .
is to on Jesus cling!
~~~~~
The Lord is good unto them
that wait for him, to the
soul that seeketh him.
“If ye abide in me,
and my words abide in you,
ye shall ask what ye will,
and it shall be done unto you.

When Torn ~
When torn between,
which road to take
pray before any . . .
conclusion you make.
Don’t be in a hurry,
to make your decision
wait until God gives
a crystal clear vision.
When at a crossroad,
before you move on
pray and ask God
to be Spirit drawn.
Don’t rush ahead,
until He gives the go
for, if you’re patient
the way He will show.
When torn between,
which road to take . . .
always choose the highway
if on God you can’t wait!
~~~~~~~~~~
“Thou wilt shew me the path of life:
in thy presence is fulness of joy;
at thy right hand there are pleasures
for evermore.”
“The highway of the upright
is to depart from evil:
he that keepeth his way
preserveth his soul.”

Wait-Training ~
Wait-training,
we all need to go through
it’s something . . .
we must to learn to do.
For, God wants to teach us,
how on Him to rely
and to trust Him when
He’s got us on standby.
It will take patience,
and a lot of practice
for wait-training requires
us to be proactive.
For, God wants to show us,
His timing is the best
through He’s got us waiting
we can still be at rest.
Wait-training,
takes a lot of fortitude
for it takes strength to have
a surrendered attitude!
~~~~~~
“Wait on the Lord:
be of good courage,
and he shall strengthen
thine heart: wait,
I say, on the Lord.”

The Reason for My Hope
I believe in God,
in all of His glorious creation
I believe He made the heavens
and the earth's foundation.I believe that man,
came from but dust
I believe it's God's image
He puts into all of us.I believe that Satan,
is the cause for our fallen state
I believe it's still his lies
he uses on us to trap and bait.I believe that man's heart,
has always been cold and callous
I believe it's full of deceit
filled with ungodly malice.I believe in Jesus,
God's only begotten Son
I believe He died and rose again
for the sins of everyone.I believe in redemption,
from our wicked, evil ways
I believe it's the blood of the Lamb
that washes our sins away.I believe in God's love,
I believe in His grace
I believe one day
God's judgement all will face.I believe in Heaven,
I also believe in hell . . .
I believe for eternity it's where
the unsaved will dwell.I believe in the hope,
Jesus imparts in me
I believe all can be saved
if these truth they'd just see!~~~~~~~~~~~~
Peter 3:15
King James Version"But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts:
and be ready always to give an answer to

I will not be shaken,
nothing can rattle me
not even my own death
will take me, Lord from Thee.I will not tremble,
I have nothing to fear
even if I'm all alone
God is always near.I will not waiver,
on my Rock, I will stand
if I was to stumble
in His grace I will land.I will not be moved,
nothing can take away
the love I have for Jesus
from His ways I'll not stray.I will not be shaken,
nothing will take from me
the peace, faith and hope
I have dear Lord, in Thee!~~~~~~~

from him cometh my salvation.
