Faith in Action

Genuine faith, a beacon bright,
Reflects God’s love, His guiding light.
Not just in words, but deeds we show,
His righteousness, in us, must grow.

Our beliefs, not mere theory’s claim,
But lived out loud, in Jesus’ name.
Dependence on God, our humble plea,
His grace, the source of all we see.

It’s not enough to wish goodwill,
We must take steps, our hearts to fill.
To support, uplift, and truly care,
In every act, His love we share.

Love thy neighbor, the Bible’s call,
In serving others, we stand tall.
If one lacks, and we do naught,
Our faith, in question, is then caught.

Compassionate hearts, proactive hands,
In Christ’s love, our faith expands.
Align our lives with spiritual sight,
In every moment, shine His light.
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.
