Trust

This is also something a wrote a while ago not sure when but I thought I would share it.

Trust in the LORD and do good;
Dwell in the land and cultivate faithfulness.
Delight yourself in the LORD;
And He will give you the desires of your heart.
Commit your way to the LORD,
Trust also in Him, and He will do it.
He will bring forth your righteousness as the light
And your judgment as the noonday.
Rest in the LORD and wait patiently for Him;
Do not fret because of him who prospers in his way,
Because of the man who carries out wicked schemes.
Psalms 37:3-7 NASB

Lord help me to trust in You
God show me how to find delight in You
Lord I want to wholly commit my life to You
Lord help me to trust in You

Lord help me to trust in You
Show me how to be still for You God
I desire to wait patiently for You
Lord help me to trust in You

Lord I know you'll help me to trust You
I know you'll show me how to find delight in You
I know you'll show me how to be still before You
Lord I know you'll help me to trust in You.

Poetry from the Past

I wrote this poem one day while I was working at subway I think. I was looking through some of the things I wrote a while ago and it made me sad because I recently I don't feel like I have been as close to God as I was at the time I wrote this. Who knows maybe He impressed me to write down my feelings at that time so that it would compel me to seek him more now. Well I hope this gives you a blessing to it's simple but good.

Jesus is my everything

Without Him I wouldn't be anything

His sacrifice is the best gift anyone could ever give

And He offers it to every child of His

He loves us all even though we sin

And He's coming down here to take us back with Him

All we have to do is believe in Jesus

Because no matter what happens He'll never leave us

Save me

God I need You,

Please help me,

I feel as if I am slipping away,

No matter what I do I feel myself drawing farther from you.

God I so want to be close to You,

I want to be closer to You than anyone before.

Why is it that I have the desire,

Yet I am still falling away.

Please God help me,

I don’t want to fall away from You.

How is it that I am trying to serve You,

But feeling as if I am farther from You than ever before?

I know that Satan is attacking me,

I feel Him drawing me from You.

God help me to be strong,

Help me to come to You when I feel pulled away.

God I need You,

Without You there is no hope for me!

Save me Lord, save me!

I feel as if in this very moment I am losing my grip,

Any second I could drift away.

Rescue me from this stream of sin,

Save me from the current of my selfishness.

I know You can save me God,

I will trust in You.
