Strength through Joy
“Show me Your ways, O Lord; teach me Your paths.” Psalms 25:4
Another day is dawning, Lord,
And I must make a choice;
Will I live this day in fear and doubt,
Or will I, by faith in You, rejoice?
For I stand before a crossroad,
Pondering the paths I see in prayer,
Seeking Your Spirit’s leading,
Dependent upon Your loving care.
But earthly pleasures and temptations beckon,
Prompting restlessness and fear;
Yet, I know through insight from Your Word
Your higher, greater plan is clear.
But I must will to make the choice
To not be deceived by Satan’s ploy,
And allow fearful, negative emotions
To rob me of Your peace and joy.
But in faith must choose to follow
Wherever You lead today,
Trusting that in whatever comes
You will direct and guide my way.
