worth the fight - v2

worth the fight, the effort,

our continuing struggle

between our flesh, the spirit,

taking up the Book, our cross,

fulfilling our divine purpose

our part in God's plan.

worth the fight, the effort,

putting in our time, the work

seeking to change, to serve,

not in fear but in victory

not overwhelmed by the storms

the continuing lies of this world.

as we read the scriptures

as we read the scriptures

as we put in the time
as we put in the effort
as we read the scriptures
their lessons for our lives
as we draw closer to Him
as we approach the throne of God,
we have joy, overwhelming,
we know love unending
we are redeemed, made whole,
we have victory
in the struggles of life.

overwhelmed - again

overwhelmed - again

overwhelmed by #chaos
the #world, #emotion
beat down by #life
the #journey, the #struggle.

overwhelmed by your #love
your #kindness, your #mercy
your #promise in #scripture
as close as #breath.

#overwhelmed - 2

overwhelmed by your love
your mercy oh Lord
feeling you with me
right by my side.

overwhelmed by your love
your great sacrifice
redeeming this sinner,
bound, now free.

as we draw closer

as we draw closer

as we draw closer

with our #Creator, our #God,

we are not overwhelmed

by the noise of the world.

as we draw closer

as we spend time with the Lord

we are at #peace

within the world, each storm.

overwhelmed

overwhelmed

need to draw closer
to God, to God's #heart,
overwhelmed by #chaos
our #wilderness, the #world.

set on the right track
back on the rails
spending time, garden time,
walking with our #Lord.

Succeeding for God's glory

Succeeding for #God's #glory

serving God humbly
our #calling, the work
succeeding for God's glory
not for our praise, the world.

working for God's kingdom
our gifts, God's #purpose
succeeding for God's glory
serving out in the world.

God's holding our lives - v2

God's holding our lives - v2

God is always with us

God will never leave us;

God is holding our lives

within his loving arms.

God is always with us

in our darkness, our struggles;

God walks right beside us

every day of our lives.
