We stay in prayer

Knowing God will be there

We travel far

As we heal every scar

We search for a place

To run our race

We long for purpose

Before it rises to the surface

We look into our hearts

To see where love starts

We long for affection

As well as protection

We try to find the key

To what’s meant to be

We search for peace

Our hearts won’t release

We try to stand

As we hold God’s hand

We see the journey ahead

Then rid ourselves of dread

In many ways

We long for better days

We listen to God’s encouraging word

Cause it’s all we’ve heard

We take one step at a time

While still in our prime

Sometimes we get lost

Not knowing at what cost

We face every storm

We defy every norm

We fall to our knees

Wondering who to please

Before faith takes hold

And our story is told

We stay on the same road

As God carries the heavy load

We endure a lot of pain

As well as stress and strain

In many ways

We long for better days

Stop stressing yourself out. God knows what you are facing, and He will provide.

Sometimes, you have to thank God for what didn’t happen.

Happiness is an inside job.

Don’t expect God to fail you, because He won’t.

As I sat on my father’s knee

I saw what was meant to be

He taught me lessons

That have become confessions

He filled my soul

With what makes it whole

He provided the light

I follow day and night

He held me close

Told me what matters most

He gave me something pure

Made me feel safe and secure

He told me what God can do

How he brought us through

He taught me how to live

Taught me how to give

How to love

Just live heaven above

He offered me a guide

He filled me with pride

He spoke of God’s word

And other things He has heard

He spoke of a place

Filled with God’s grace

He provided a home

Where my soul could roam

He gave me affection

As well as protection

He taught me to smile

Even laugh a little while

He said every day

Should be filled with God’s way

He said every journey

Is meant for me only

He took me by the hand

Taught me how to stand

As we began to rejoice

With just one voice

It became clear

What I should hold dear

And I could see

What’s meant to be

While sitting on my father’s knee

Facing every day

Accepting God’s way

Knowing what He can do

Seeing how He brought me through

Facing my naysayers

As I say my prayers

Letting Him ease my mind

Embracing what I find

Learning how to care

Knowing God is always there

Finding a place

Filled with mercy and grace

Learning to smile

Even laugh a little while

Hanging on God’s word

Cause it’s all I’ve heard

Taking one step at a time

While still in my prime

Counting every blessing

Without a lot of stressing

Seeing what’s in stone

Why God won’t leave me alone

Feeling His affection

Having His protection

Reaching my peak

Whenever I hear God speak

Finding solid ground

Sharing the joy I found

Holding my faith near

Knowing my purpose is clear

Carrying life lessons

That become heartfelt confessions

Opening my eyes

To a wonderful surprise

Letting go of shame

The world knowing my name

My heart getting stronger

As my days get longer

Starting a new chapter

With joy and laughter

Falling and rising again

Knowing with faith I can win

My heart filled to the core

Before God offers me more

Lifting my voice

As I learn to rejoice

God knows you’re tired; don’t give up. Your breakthrough is just around the corner. You’re transitioning into your new season!

Don’t give up. Tough times don’t last forever.

God is amazing.
