Footsteps Of Purpose 👣

My Precious Jesus...

As I take the first footsteps upon my long, winding pathway...

I can feel a sense of uncertainty and great fear trying to overwhelm me

Suddenly, I want to give up and feel like a failure more than my words can say

But, your mercy reaches out for my spirit with the purest grace so perfectly.

You see a beautiful vessel in the making as you look upon me with love...

And wrap me in your embrace and begin a fine work as only a Craftsman can

Teaching me to see as you do and making me in your fine image above

Showing my heart and spirit that you are in control and have it all with a plan.

So now I take the first footsteps 👣 and realize there are some right next to me...

I can see my strength and courage begin to reach such staggering new heights

Suddenly, my heart and spirit become encouraged and walk on so mightily

Because you, my breathtaking Jesus are my source, my lighthouse and my perfect light.

You are everything I'll ever need for the journey and so much more...

My Saviour who takes care of all I'll need along the way and my perfect best friend

Blessings and goodness continuously flow from your heart through Heavens mighty door

You are my rainbow of promise that I see so beautifully at the end!

Beautiful Peace

My Jesus...

When my heart is aching and broken more than I can bear...

And instead of standing strong I feel like walking away

A feeling overwhelms in me like no one seems to care

I just don't feel like looking forward to another day.

But then a light comes shining beyond the horizon true...

It fills my heart with a breathtaking promise perfectly

Suddenly I don't feel alone in all that I may do

Because a spirit of pure love and grace is filling me.

Jesus, I feel your joy as you wrap me in your embrace...

And lift the heaviness from my shoulders forevermore

Tears begin to flow from my eyes as I look at your face

And listen as you tell me that you have good things in store.

A wave of calm and tranquility takes total control...

I can feel Your perfect peace Lord as You walk by my side

Telling me I never have to fear but be sweet and whole

For there You will always and forever walk and abide.

I know I can face each day with happiness and delight...

I never have to feel heavy burdens ever again

Jesus I am always going to look to You with might

For You are my everything, my great Lord and my best friend!

Perfect Patience

My Jesus.....

Your patience is a breathtaking gift that I value more than words can say...

It is a precious joy from my Saviour to His child so beloved

It is always in mighty abundance and there for me every day

Overflowing from Your heart of wonder and majesty from above.

I know I don't deserve anything because I'm disappointing yes it's true...

I'm a broken imperfect vessel who's coming before your great throne

But then your light of Grace and Love shine and I see the very best of You

That is when my heart knows without any doubt that I am never alone.

You pick me up and look at me with a beautiful smile on your face...

As I hear Your voice telling me that my pathway will be fine forevermore

Your anointing begins to cleanse me while I am in your sweet embrace

And miracles and blessings begin to flow mightily from Heavens great door.

Step by step You're working to make me all that you truly want me to be...

I could see the artistic work of a Master Craftsman greatly each day

Jesus thank You for Your patience, grace and love and for living in me

I am honored to be Your child and want to please You more every day!

Hands Of Love

My Jesus...

I take a 🚶 step with strength and reach out to the Heavens above...

Not knowing what I'm looking for or what I can truly bear

Just then your mighty hands begin to open with wondrous love

And reach out with a Saviours mercy to show me that you care.

You heal my anguish and burdens and give me peace from the start...

Fill me with a love and an assurance you're always right there

Your presence comes and lives always in the center of my heart

And fills me with your brilliant light that always shines everywhere.

The seeds slowly take shape and I begin to look more like you...

The confusion and stress are slowly starting to drift away

I'm becoming a Kingdom kid in everything that I do

I can look forward with anticipation to a new day!

An Intimate Bond

My Breathtaking Jesus...

I want our relationship to be so rugged and true...

Like an ⚓ anchor of hope it stays powerful through all time

So I pledge myself and my strong devotion my whole life through

And await your spirit greater than anything I'll find.

You are the awesome breath of life that fills my lungs from above...

The bright light and word that gives my heart direction and the way

The fire filled spirit of promise that fills me with your love

The Provider of assurance and peace for every day.

I want to feel you so mightily working in me...

And touch the tears from your power as you draw me to your care

Life's travels become even more wonderful as through your eyes I see

And with every 👣 footstep 

I take you will always be right there.

So as I pledge my faith and learn more about your mighty hands...

There's so much I want to learn as I come before you with delight

Becoming one with your heart is my greatest life's plan

Lord I want our bond stronger as I come before you with all might!

A Prayer

Jesus...

You are the joy that brings my heart delight and helps me to live better every day...

The breathtaking example for me to strive to follow in all I do

I pray to follow your steps and learn your perfect will and love in every way

Lord as I travel through my journey I want to be exactly like you.

There is nothing that will take its permanent hold on me and be a burden...

For you have taken me under your wing and gently wrapped me in your great care

Having you taking care of me I'll be successful it's just a matter of when

Your precious peace and comfort have filled my heart and your grace will always be there.

So now I continue to pray that your incredible hands will work on me more...

Making me a beautiful reflection of who you are and your love so perfectly

Make me a masterpiece and save me a place where I can meet you on Heavens shore

Where I can be the beautiful light and reflection and all that you want me to be

Incredible Mercy

Sometimes, I cannot see worth in the person that I am...

I feel I'm not the kind of person you want me to be

When I can't make you smile I feel that I failed life's plan

But that's when you come in with your incredible Mercy.

You wipe away my tears and clear all that is unlike you...

Your perfect love fills me with a great peace that makes me whole

And give me real strength and forgiveness that will see me through

Thank you for your breathtaking anointing that fills my soul.

I can see my definition in your heart's overflow...

I am a masterpiece in the making by your great hands

Anytime I need a reminder your mercy will show

I just take your love with me and on your foundation stand!
