Faith Shall Trust

From Habakkuk 2:4:  “Look at the proud!  Their spirit is not right in them, but the righteous live by their faithfulness.”

Too many demands

Fewer precious hours

Life out of control

Darkness set to devour

 

Light beams from God’s Word

Life’s frantic pace slows

Moment by moment

Steps finding high plateau

 

Fresh landscape of peace

In God, faith shall trust

Heart fills with new hope

Priorities adjust

 

Hidden darkness flees

Armor of light worn

God’s grace stretching out

His answers come each morn

 

Prayer’s conveyance

Journey with God’s love

Freedom at last found

Guidance breathes from above

From Romans 13:12:  “The night is far gone; the day is near.  Let us then throw off the works of darkness and put on the armor of light.”

We live our lives under the careful, loving, gracious, albeit sovereign, hand of our God.  And the movements of time and history tick off according to His reckoning, exactly as He ordained.

Devoted to Father

From Psalm 86:2-3:  “Preserve my life, for I am devoted to You; save Your servant who trusts in You.  You are my God; be gracious to me, O Lord, for to You do I cry all day long.”

Devoted to Father

Hearing His endless thoughts

Witnessing heavenly goodness

Life’s lessons always taught

 

Filled with Father’s steadfast spirit

Trusting His timely grace

Lifting wayward heart from darkness

Love offers mercy’s place

 

Called to walk in Father’s vision

Turning away from sin

Answering each burden’s prayer

Faith’s glorious linchpin

 

Delivered light shines upon thee

Words filling confession

Lifting soul from forgotten place

Forgiving transgressions

 

Comforted with Father’s favor

Rising from empty tomb

Sowing with every seeded field

Peace gathered from each bloom
