God's way

"Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved." ~ Joel 2:32

God made the promise
Not me
Not you
and God will find a way
to keep the promise.

It is not up to me
or you
to direct His ways,
but rather,
to obey His commands.

Are we listening
Are we doing
Do we go to Him
or do we plan our own course of action
and then
pay for the misfortune that results?

"He will teach us His ways, And we shall walk in His paths." ~ Isaiah 2:3

The Lord God is gracious
He waits
for you
He hears
your cry
He answers.

Adversity comes
and pain abounds
He teaches
"This is the way, walk in it." ~ Isaiah 30:21

Do your eyes see?
Do your ears hear?
Do you obey His commands?
Does your life reflect the Lord and His way, His truth, His life?
