"For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD,
"plans to prosper you and not to harm you,
plans to give you hope and a future"
Jeremiah 29:11
Are you like me and asked from time to time --- Lord,
what is your will in my life? Or Lord, how do I overcome this
frustration in my life? This unknown writer addresses these and
other complex issues of our relationship with God, beautifully opined.
My Precious Child Be Still....
Sometimes I ask the question,
"My Lord, is this your will?"
It's then I hear you answer me,
"My Precious Child... be still."
Sometimes I feel frustrated,
Cause I think I know what's best.
It's then I hear you say to me,
"My Busy Child... just rest"
"I know the plans I have for you,
The wondrous things you'll see;
If you can just be patient, Child,
And put your trust in me.
I've plans to draw you closer.
I've plans to help you grow.
There's much I do you cannot see
And much you do not know.
But know this, Child ..... I LOVE YOU.
You are Precious unto Me.
Before I formed you in the womb,
I planned your destiny.
I've something very special
I hope for you to learn.
The gifts I wish to give to you
Are gifts you cannot earn.
They come without a price tag,
But not without a cost;
At Calvary, I gave Myself,
So You would not be lost.
Rest, Child, and do not weary
Of doing what is good.
I promise I'll come back for you
Just like I said I would.
Your name is written on my palm,
I never could forget;
Therefore, do not be discouraged when
My answer is... "Not Yet"
Prayer: Father thank you that you listen to my every prayer.
In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ. Amen!
Psalm 46: 1-3 & 11
God is our refuge and strength,
A very present help in trouble;
Therefore we will not fear,
though the earth should change;
And though the mountains slip into the heart of the sea,
Though its waters roar and foam,
Though the mountains quake at its welling pride.
The Lord of hosts is with us;
The God of Jacob is our stronghold.
