Life Lessons

Awaking to a new day

Praying God will make a way

Sometimes getting lost

Not knowing the cost

Until God sets a path

Without unleashing He wrath

Looking into our soul

To see what makes life whole

Grappling with doubt

Until God works things out

Learning to stand

As we hold God’s hand

Our purpose becoming clear

As God removes our fear

Listening to His word

Cause it’s all we’ve heard

Finding pure gold

As our story is told

Letting go of our pride

As we follow our guide

Holding each other close

Cause our bond matters most

Learning to build new dreams

That make us burst at the seams

Finally finding a home

Where our souls can roam

Learning how to live

How much to give

How to love

Just like heaven above

Feeling God’s affection

As well as protection

Cherishing beautiful things

All the joy life brings

Watching God remove every cloud

Seeing things that make us proud

Finally getting stronger

As our days get longer

Our hearts running free

Seeing what’s meant to be

Finding a place

Filled with God’s amazing grace

Then seeing what’s for us

And the God we trust

As we change our view After seeing what God can

Emotional

Facing every day

As we continue to pray

Dealing with every feeling

As we keep our souls from reeling

Anger, sadness, happiness galore

All fill us to the core

We try to smile

Even laugh a little while

We grapple with fear

Until we see God standing near

We try to rest peacefully

As God works faithfully

We listen to the word

We’ve always heard

We search for a moment of pleasure

Beyond all measure

Until faith fills every soul

And makes us whole

We change our view

After seeing what God can do

Sometimes we’re down

Smiles turned into a frown

Until blessings are granted

And we water the seeds we planted

We wonder what’s by design

Until God shows everything is fine

We find a place

To run our race

We search for our purpose

Until it rises to the surface

We finally settle on solid ground

Share the joy we found

Sometimes we feel weak

Until we hear God speak

Sometimes we cry

As we wonder why

Until God reveals His plan

As only He can

We wonder how to live

How much to give

Until God unveils the journey

Meant for us only

We keep going

All while knowing

That God offers a home

Where our souls can roam

Awakening

As we look at the sands of time

We see how love

Came from heaven above

We see how far faith took us

In God we trust

We see the blessings granted

We water the seeds we planted

We see the dreams

That make us burst at the seams

We see the strength we gain

Through heartache and pain

We see a wonderful surprise

Whenever we open our eyes

We land in a place

Filled with mercy and grace

We listen to the word

That needs to be heard

We learn to smile

Even laugh a little while

We change our view

After seeing what God can do

Our souls run free

We know what’s meant to be

And life gets better

As we embrace it to the letter

As we look at the sands of time

We see all our days

God’s very loving ways

We see what’s in stone

Why God never leaves us alone

We see every moment of pleasure

Beyond all measure

We see what’s real

Too difficult to conceal

We see the journey

Meant for us only

We see God’s power

Hour after hour

We see the home

Where our souls roam

And we see our prime

Through the sands of time
