Be patient waiting on God Archives - Page 8 of 12

Today

Yesterday’s gone
And tomorrow’s unknown
We have, just today
To invest, wisely own.

So, give Christ your life
Your will, and whole heart
Repent, seek God’s Presence
To come fill, every part.

Remember our lives
Are played on a stage
That God has designed
With plans for each age.

And while God offers good
Temptation brings evil
Understanding our choice
Be His righteous people.

Therefore, welcome your trials
Your waiting, and suffering
Since God is perfecting
Become His fragrant offering.

In God’s Vine, keep abiding
As His branch, bearing fruit
Stay dependent, keep praying
Christ-likeness, your pursuit.

In scripture and song
In prayer, listen too
Expect to meet God
He is waiting for you.

Seek but the Lord
Not for what He can do
But simply enjoy Him
Alone, He and you.

Does God have a purpose
In suffering and pain
Sorrow and sickness
Can He turn to gain?

So, draw near to God
Repentant and yearning
Hungering and thirsting
Worshiping, and learning.
