My Choice Is God'sA Poem by Will Nething
Lord, why is it so hard to wait
For things that I want to take? Please help me before it's too late, And You have to take them away. But why can't I choose Your wisdom, And die to myself each day, And live only for Your Kingdom Instead of throwing my life away To things that won't last. It's hard to follow Your timing. Sometimes I don't understand When she needs someone; she's crying. Why can't I take her like I planned? But let Your love flow through my spirit. Please help me do this right, And if I don't want to hear it, Lord, shine Your perfect light In my eyes through her life. When I'm tempted to give up at life, Please show me that You care About my struggles, sins and strife. These on Calv'ry You did bear. So now I draw on Your power" My own won't help one bit. I cling to You as my tower Because You never quit Being my Heavenly Father. Help me see Your Word is very clear In a dim and shady world. I've no need to halt or fear. Let Your image bearer be heard. I thank You for never changing. Help me be true, consistent. Though Satan is always raging Help me to be resistant. My choice is God's. © 2010 Will Nething |
