WALKING MY TALK
I say 'I am a Christian and 'I trust the Lord"
I say He supplies my needs - more than I can afford.
In Him life is an adventure.. I am never bored
I say I walk the 'narrow' ignoring the Broad.
Then why do I doubt His presence, when problems arise?
Why do I look at the storms and not up to His skies?
Why do I let go of His hand - listen to Satan's lies?
Why doubt all is well in Him .. fearing compromise?
I say so many things but 'live' in doubt, like today
My problems blur my vision - He is the only way.
He draws me back to Him again, moulding like clay
With 'don't wriggle and complain - in my presence stay'.
Then I say 'Father, I love you, forgive my human fears,
For a moment I lost my focus...through these salty tears.
With You in control, Lord, every problem disappears
The fog is lifted in You I rest, the pathway slowly clears.
'Help me live a day at a time - in this chaotic mess
Sometimes I say and do the opposite - that I must confess
Focusing on Your Word and Promises - stress becomes less
Strengthen me as I walk my talk - make me a true witness'.
