Loving Proof

 

A new day is upon us; what waits, we do not know
Only the One who grants it can see where it will go
Then, with this sweet assurance that He will lead the way
We ought not to proceed, love, before we pause to pray

Joshua 1:9
Have I not commanded you? 
Be strong and courageous. 
Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, 
for the LORD your God will be with you 
wherever you go."

An Important Truth to learn and remember
whether we are very young or very old...



We don’t know what the day will bring 
Before its fling is through 
We don’t what we’ll lose or win 
But Lord, you do 

We don’t always love like we should 
Or use time’s gifted due 
To work toward the greater good 
But Lord, you do 

We don’t have what it takes to earn 
Eternal life, it’s true 
Or open Heaven’s gates in turn 
But Lord, you do

Deut.6:5-8

 5Love the Lord your God with all your heart 
and with all your soul and with all your strength. 
6These commandments that I give you today are to be on your hearts.
 7Impress them on your children. 
Talk about them when you sit at home 
and when you walk along the road, 
when you lie down and when you get up. 
8Tie them as symbols on your hands and bind them on your foreheads.
 9Write them on the doorframes of your houses and on your gates.
