A Victim, a Victor or Vector?

So depending, not on others
Their affirmation and praise
And no matter our lot
Be a God-Vector, always.
Facing Disasters

“The LORD gave, the LORD has taken
Blessed be the name, of the LORD”
“The LORD gave, the LORD has taken
Blessed be the name, of the LORD”
Here is Love

Here is love, vast as the ocean
His loving kindness, like a flood
When the Prince of Life, our ransom
Shed for us, His precious blood.
But Wait on the LORD

Shall mount up, like eagles
Shall run, and not grow weary
They shall walk, and not faint
Know God, is ever with me.
Closed Doors

When a door slams shut
There is rarely a ‘why’
God suddenly closes
‘Oft a puzzling surprise.
Fall upon me and fill me!

Do you yearn to draw nearer
So filled, by God’s Spirit?
Take this vessel, so faulty
Come restore LORD, and fill it.
Adversity? – God means it for good

And so, no matter our lot
Walk by faith, and not sight
Cling to God’s Word, His grace
Midst our darkness, His light.
Our ‘Flesh’ has to Die

So have we died with Christ
Our flesh on the Cross?
Are we carnal and selfish
Or count all things as loss?
Wait upon The Lord

So, in place of self-searching
And following our feelings
Rather obey the LORD
Be wise, wait upon His leading.
Where is Your Trust?

But blessed is the man
Who trusts in the LORD,
And whose hope, is the LORD
Shall see blessings out-poured.
