God’s Faithful Hand

In trials and in joy, His justice stands, 
With perfect timing, He guides our hands. 
When life is tough, His righteousness shines, 
In His decisions, our hearts align.

With honesty and hearts so true, 
We seek Him, and He draws us through. 
Near to those who earnestly call, 
In His presence, we stand tall.

He hears the cries of those who fear, 
Fulfilling desires, drawing near. 
With reverence, we trust His care, 
In every need, He’s always there.

Reflecting love, in righteousness we tread, 
Avoiding paths where wickedness is spread. 
With praise and gratitude, our lives we mold, 
Sharing His goodness, His love untold.

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.
