If life is like a box of chocolates...reach for the hope filled kind!
(and have a little chocolate for your soul)
P.L.E.A.S.I.N.G.
PEACEFUL
Filled with peace not because I know
How the tide will turn, how the trial will go
Peaceful for Jesus is mine and because
All that I cannot control, God does
LOVED
Deep inside, waking each day
To a love that is real and has promised to stay
A love that commands, the waves of the sea
And wants the very best for me
EMPTIED
Letting go of my dreams and plans
Putting my hand in His hand
Being okay I have nothing to bring
Trusting Him for everything
ALIGNED
Seeking His will and the will to obey
Walking in faith as He leads the way
Wanting most of all to be
Positioned where He is wanting me
SURRENDERED
Steadfast faith through thick and thin
Mind and heart, stayed on Him
Surrendered to His will I climb
Knowing His ways are higher than mine
INTENTIONAL
Making the most of every minute
He has a purpose if He has me in it
Knowing what He is calling me to
In little things and big things too
NOURISHED
In tune to the hunger in my soul
Letting Jesus make me whole
Satisfied just thinking of
The sweetness of my Father’s love
GRATEFUL
Letting my wandering heart find rest
In the love of God who loves me best
In God who is perfect in all His ways
And worthy of my thanks and praise
"There are many who say, 'Who will show us some good? Lift up the light of your face upon us, O LORD!' You have put more joy in my heart than they have when their grain and wine abound."
Psalm 4:6,7 (ESV)
