In This World

Reach for Him

When the sky begins to fall

When you can’t understand His hand

Trust His heart

“I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.” John 16:33

Lowly King

Broken and defeated

Crumbling to the ground

My hands reached out

And felt His feet

…….

My tears streamed down

Succumbing to pain’s sting

But anguish turned to praise

As I trusted this lowly King

“As she stood behind him at his feet weeping, she began to wet his feet with her tears. Then she wiped them with her hair, kissed them and poured perfume on them.” Luke 7:38

Forging Our Faith

He brings us face to face

with our depravity

To understand our humanity

Until we learn to declare

It is for His purpose we are here

And we confess and believe

It is by His grace we live and breathe

Matthew 16:15

“But what about you?” he asked. “Who do you say I am?”
