Strike a Balance

In the dance of life, balance is the key, 
between work and faith, a harmony we see. 
Professional pursuits and passions of the soul, 
together they can make us whole.


In the realm of the Divine, where love's river flows, God's love for us, unchanging, forever grows. After periods of hardship, joy takes flight, a beacon in the darkness, a shining light. Temporary is the sorrow, fleeting is the pain, joy comes eventually, like sunshine after rain. In Jesus, our sorrow finds its end, joy emerges, like a faithful friend. 

God's plan for our lives, a mystery profound, in His wisdom, our lives are bound. Worldly circumstances, ever so capricious, eternal spiritual truths, infinitely precious. Even when understanding seems out of sight, in God we trust, in His infinite might. His faithfulness endures, a beacon in the night, guiding us, leading us, with His eternal light. 

Just and fair is the Lord, in all His ways, a model for us, through all our days. Opposition may come, revilement may rise, but let not deterrence cloud our skies. Move on, press on, let your spirit soar, for God's mission for us, forever in store. Perseverance, resilience, determination strong, in the face of challenges, where we belong. Overcoming, succeeding, achieving His will, in the purpose of life, our role to fill. 

When efforts seem in vain, and results are few, change your approach, try something new. By faith, we are transformed, made anew, in the mirror of the soul, a reflection true. So dance the dance, live the song, in God's grand plan, we belong. Remember, we're not alone in this grand play, we need companions to light the way. 

Strive for righteousness, in actions and in thought, in the lessons of life, that His love has taught. Live in accordance with His will, His divine plan, share His love and salvation, to every woman and man. For in sharing His message, in living His word, the echoes of His love, throughout the world are heard.

Navigating life's challenges, a daunting quest, with faith in God, we are blessed. A spiritual perspective, our guiding star, leading us forward, no matter how far. Salvation comes through faith, a gift so grand, a testament of His love, from His mighty hand. Acknowledge this gift, with gratitude and praise, worship Him, honor Him, in countless ways.
Let the words of my mouth and the thoughts of my heart find favor before you, O Lord, my rock and my redeemer. - Psalm 19:15

Prayer

What lies within this fragile heart that beats and bleeds and breaks apart. What secrets does it hold inside that I have tried so hard to hide. What dreams and hopes and fears and doubts that fill my mind and make me shout. What passions and desires and joys and pains that stir my soul and course my veins. What words and thoughts and feelings and deeds that shape my life and guide my needs. What truths and lies and rights and wrongs that form my voice and sing my songs. What is this heart that you can see that only you can set me free. What is this heart that I conceal that only you can make me reveal.
