Poetry
Psalm 1264
Because Your ways are not my ways, Father,
help me learn to view everything from Your perspective
that each of my adversities be turning into a moment of teaching.
May Your love settle in my heart dissolving all bitterness and blame
as I surrender to Your will.
For so long I’ve packed You away, saving You for certain moments,
with my biggest hope being I would never have to take You out,
I see now that was wrong
because I need You in every aspect of my life.
No matter what it is, whether it be small or large,
I need You , Father.
I need You more than the air I breathe to stay alive.
So I ask, Father, that when life is most difficult,
help me remember that You have a purpose for it
and that I am being nourished in Your truth which will bear spiritual fruit.
Enable me to rejoice knowing that You are building my endurance.
I can feel it growing, and I know there is still more growing that must take place.
So help me not give in to fears of the mind which try to hold me back,
Instead, I will take each step knowing and trusting You are guiding my steps.
Thank You, Father, for the grace You show day after day,
for through it I am able to speak of all Your wonders
knowing that You are here to provide more than I can ever imagine,
hope or ask.
All that I do ask, Father, I ask in Jesus’ name,
Amen.
Holy, Holy, Holy. Lord God Almighty,
Who was, and is, and is to come.
