God Leads our Lives with Purpose and Mastery

With His will as our compass, His love as our guide, 
we journey through life, with Him by our side.


In the grand design of His divine tapestry, God leads our lives with purpose and mastery. He has brought us to Himself and all His works are all meant to bring us to a more intimate relationship with Him. Not self-made, but by His hand we're formed, in His image, in love, we're adorned. 

We may change, like shifting sands of time, but God remains constant, sublime. His promises fulfilled, His word so pure, in His unchanging nature, we find our cure. Flexible and open, we must remain, to the Holy Spirit’s guidance, we ascertain. Even when our plans take a different turn, in His wisdom, there's always something to learn. Our plans may falter, our path may twist, but God's plan prevails, through the mist. Though things may not turn out as we expected, in His plan, we are always directed. So let us trust, in the Lord's plan, for He guides us, since time began. In every high, in every low, in His love, we continue to grow.

In this world, not of it, we reside, with Christ as our guide, in Him, we confide. As followers of Him, in His footsteps, we tread, not surprised by opposition, but by His love, we're led. Jesus made it clear, the path won't be easy, being His follower, the world won't be breezy. At odds with the world, for His name, we stand, carrying our cross, guided by His hand. 

Rejection or persecution, we may face, but it's not a sign of disgrace. It could be a result of standing up for Christ, in the face of adversity, His love sufficed. Despite the challenges, the trials we navigate, in our walk with Christ, let us participate. Faithful and steadfast, let us remain, for in Christ, we have everything to gain.

Called to share the Gospel, far and wide, to the ends of the world, with Him as our guide. With respect and love, we must interact, cultural sensitivities, we must not detract. In God's grand mission, teamwork is key, together we work, in unity, we agree. Accomplishing His work, hand in hand, spreading His love throughout the land. 

With gratitude and humility, let us live, to God, our trust and faith, let us give. Inclusivity, a spirit we must embrace, acknowledging God in every space. His enduring love, His faithfulness so grand, guides us gently, by His loving hand. Our worship, a joyful expression, a song, to God, our Creator, where we belong.
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.
