Walk in His way

God must be so frustrated watching us go our own way

Only talking to Him for wants when we pray

Seemingly forgetting we all need construction

Yet, not always listening to His instruction

We pick and choose what we want to obey

Instead of listening to all He does say

We sit on the fence not fully committing to Him

Not fully ready to give up our sin

Lukewarm are we, when we don’t put Him first

Though not doing so, only brings out the worst

We ought to know better, haven’t we learned yet

What life is when our hearts on God are not set

I can picture Him there, calling out our name

Trying to protect us from sins hurt and shame

It must be hard, watching His children that He loves so much

Seem so distant and out of touch

How it must hurt when we are not all in for Him

When we prioritize sin

He is there knocking, telling us He loves us so

That He is here wanting to help us grow

To walk with Him and live our best

To try and help our brokenness

So we can have a better life here

That He truly does care

Though most of all to meet Him up above

So we can have a forever life of love

Wouldn’t it be great to always live for Him, this I do pray

My hope is that we learn to always walk in His way

Walk in His way

Galatians 5:16 NIV

So I say, walk by the Spirit, and you will not gratify the desires of the flesh. For the flesh desires what is contrary to the Spirit, and the Spirit what is contrary to the flesh. They are in conflict with each other, so that you are not to do whatever you want.

Revelation 3:16 NIV

So, because you are lukewarm—neither hot nor cold—I am about to spit you out of my mouth.

Deuteronomy 5:33 NIV

Walk in obedience to all that the Lord your God has commanded you, so that you may live and prosper and prolong your days in the land that you will possess.

Psalm 119:105 NIV

Your word is a lamp for my feet, a light on my path.
