Crossroads

​

​

 

Decisions, decisions, so many to make

Sometimes lots, sometimes only a little, at stake

 

Some we make quickly, some we stew about

If only we knew just how life would turn out

 

As I stand at a crossroad, Lord help me to see

This is more about what You are doing in me

 

Than it is about things which are held in Your hands

Which I may or may not at this time understand

 

Help me empty my hands of what I like to do

And be open to all that You may call me to

 

Help me trust in Your goodness and keep in mind

The wisdom in pages of Scripture I find

 

Help me trust in Your Sovereignty, through it all

And when choice overwhelms me, help me recall

 

To make a decision is all I can do

The outcome is something I must leave to You

 

The greatest decision, that is mine to make

Is to lay down my life, Your cross daily take

 

You have promised me Heaven with joys yet unseen

I can trust You for that and for all in between

 

Decisions seem weighty, but weightier still

Is the strength of the love that holds me in Your will

 

And better than knowing what’s beyond each bend 

Is knowing You guide me to my blessed end

 

“The plans of the heart belong to man, but the answer of the tongue is from the LORD.”  Proverbs 16:1

​

“One thing have I asked of the LORD, that I will seek after: that I may dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life, to gaze upon the beauty of the LORD and to inquire in his temple.”  “Psalm 27:4
