Poem: Our ways
It’s amazing how comforting You are when I go through storms.
It’s amazing how steadfast and solid you are, where we are half-hearted and hallow.
It’s amazing how consistent in your love and faithfulness you are.
Our way always leads us astray.
Our way is always hostile and deceptive.
Our way always leaves us lost in the belly of the whale.
Our way always follows the “what if?” that fear presents.
Our way always says, follow your heart
Yet, you say the heart is deceitful above all things and desperately wicked,
Who can know it?
You know what is in our hearts because you search our hearts and test our minds,
To give each of us according to our ways, according to our actions.
Even so, in your great mercy O Lord,
Knowing our hearts.
Knowing our minds.
Knowing our intentions.
You choose to give us a greater inheritance.
You gave us one who covers a multitude of sins.
You gave us the grace to repent.
You gave us the power to triumph.
You paved The Way back to you.
You put The Truth on the cross.
You gave us back The Life that defeated death!
That no one comes to you except through him.
No words are enough to give you glory!
Your name is lifted high!
Your name is hallowed!
