Eagerly Awaiting

In the quiet of dawn, as the sun ascends, 
We rise with purpose, our hearts on amends. 
For work is our offering, a labor of love, 
A canvas where faith meets the skies above.

With hands that toil and minds that seek, 
We build our tomorrows, both strong and meek. 
In diligence, we find our sacred refrain, 
A hymn of devotion, a steadfast domain.

Challenges come, like tempests unbidden, 
Yet we stand unwavering, our faith unhidden. 
For God’s timing we trust, His purpose secure, 
As we weave our days with threads pure.

And when shadows lengthen, and trials persist, 
We remember the promise—the Savior’s twist. 
Jesus, our hope, the triumphant King, 
Shall return in glory, our hearts joyfully sing.

So let us live out our faith, hands in the soil, 
As we await His coming, our hearts set to boil. 
For work is our worship, our diligence true, 
Eagerly awaiting the dawn of the new.

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.
