A Stop on the Road

on Oct 7, 2013

Father, again I’m troubled and again I’m thoughtful.
Again I’m wondering about tomorrow and the way it comes
I see the path to walk and I see the world before me
Yet, you have allowed another obstacle to step out in front.
Is this an obstacle, a test, or is it a gift from your grace?
How can I distinguish the good when some say step away
And others see the glory and say this is the way it should be?
What do you see?  Did you place this here, in front of me?
I will wait here.  I won’t walk past it and I won’t walk on.
I will wait here.  For your voice is the only one I will to hear
I will wait here.  This is in your hands to draw me to and away
Whisper “This is good”. Whisper “This is not for you today”

I am content to wait upon the your voice, my King
There is no rush as I’m will wait upon the answers
Teach me patience in this moment that it will become
A seed by which you change the world and shape it
Speak clearly to me and I will hear you and I will obey
I will wait upon your voice and choose each moment carefully.
Lift me back to my feet again each I falter and when I’m weak
For I wait upon you Lord, a masterful savior and mighty king
