Walking With The Lord (Poem)

 

Walking With The Lord

You don’t need amazing miracles,
Nor blazing signs to light up your way;
You just need to be the Father’s servant,
And choose to walk with Him every day.

You don’t need positive-only pep talks,
Nor comic book “Bibles” to entertain you;
You just need to continue in God’s Word -
His Holy Spirit will illuminate you.

You don’t need all that excitement and drama,
Nor do you need a life filled with endless ease;
Just be steadfastly focussed upon the Lord -
And Jesus will give you His perfect peace.

You don’t need all the glitz and the glamour,
Don’t let the world pull your heart away;
Just live for the things of Heaven above,
Let Jesus’ love be enough for you each day.

You don’t need to be broken or down-hearted,
Let the joy of the Lord be your strength and praise;
There’s a change within that only God can bring -
Jesus walks beside you, now and always.
