Expanding Horizons

God is expanding my horizons.....My life is in the hands of Jesus....

Haven't we wandered long enough?
Just when I think we;ve settled
It's time to pack up again
How long will this go on?
Why can't I just stay on?
Why O Lord does it have to be me?
How long do I have to take pain,
Lord,hear..you know my heart.
It's painful Lord with every new start
Oh LOrd all I ask is some time
I need strength before this grind
When will it stop,the right find?
You've seen the tears of endless times
It's getting weary Lord but I still wanna climb
Help my Jesus,I cannot decline
My path is now hard even though I'm tryin
But may my will be centered in Thine..

A month back,this was my prayer..and my faithful Lord has never left me....
He told me,"For I know the plans I have for you,declares the Lord,plans of
welfare and not for calamity,to give you a future and a hope."(Jeremiah 29:11)
The Lord is always there...I might be stricken with fear and doubt when my boat
is sinking but even though the storms rage..Jesus is in control...
Everything may not go as I planned,Lord...but help me and give me grace so that I
don't mess your plan in my life..Love you Jesus...Amen

Hi Susie, thank you for stopping by and leaving me a note on my blog. The love you have for Jesus is spelt out in your poetry and your words. I hope you will continue to write more about our Lord Jesus. Thank you for encouraging me as well. God speed.

Heb 12:1 Therefore since we also are surrounded with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight and the sin which so easily besets us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us,
Heb 12:2 looking to Jesus the Author and Finisher of our faith, who for the joy that was set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and sat down at the right of the throne of God.
Heb 12:3 For consider Him who endured such contradiction of sinners against Himself, lest you be weary and faint in your minds.

Endure

As the storm raged
Frightened I sank
I cried for help
And His hand on mine
He pulled me up
And we walked hand in hand
As the storm raged
My hand gripped His
A little more tighter than before
And as He walked
I got accustomed to the storm
For I knew
As long as I held His hand
Though fearsome it might seem
I could walk midst the storm
And it would not touch me
But though I knew
I still winced when I saw
The raging sea
And the powerful winds
And then He said
In simple words
"Do not fear
Just look at Me".

And now I hear
That the storm still rages on
Frightens men and sinks their ships
Blinds their eyes and deafens their ears
But my hand in His
and my eyes on HIM
I can only hear
His gentle words
"Do not fear
I am near
Endure".
