Tuesday file: Called!

(Romans 12:9-

We’re called to be a blessing to the earth.
Build a tent, invite people to live.
Set the table for two, three and even four.
Beckon, call out – in love – to people to dine.
Show empathy to the poor, feed the indigent,
reach out to all classes in humility.
Bless lives, be God’s light everywhere you set foot.

Today, I’m grateful!

I got up today feeling fabulous.

But there are seasons I wake up with burdens on my shoulder,

yet, the Lord invites me to place them at His feet.

Some days I wake up with a grievance, and

God replies; “stay continually thankful.”

Sometimes I fear if challenges will drown me,

God reveals; “I’m with you always.”

Ha! what of those moments I saunter away from Him.

He patiently guides me back to Him.

In lonely seasons when I’m most anxious.

God holds my hands assuringly, “I’m your peace, rest in me.”

My Heavenly Father reminds me that’s he’s my lot,

my peace and joy.

Today, I’m indebted to God.

He sticks closer than a brother, refusing to leave or forsake me.
