Safe in the arms of Jesus

"My child,if u go for this...
you will miss God's best."
said the voice i trust.
jolting me awake to a whole new phase
'But Lord, everything seems fine'
i thought...and then i hushed myself.
He speaks and i obey.
With a special gladness...
Ah but it is not easy
And i fret and i toss n turn.
whats to be done...
for the Lord has spoken
oh whats to be done!
Lord, my way n the world's eyes,
they say its fine.
i have not been utterly selfish
and i felt it fine in my heart
Why then do u say so, O Lord...
Father!!!... why...
And i pray and i pray...
and i toss n turn...
and i only lay open palms to say
'i dont understand'
fine Father, if it be not your will,
close this door!!!
and i shall wonder and i shall fret
but consider me not,at that time
for i am a spoilt little child
i may ask for a shining dagger
cry with all my might for it.
but you are my Father
and Your love refuses me the dagger,i know.
let me be bewildered but do Your will Lord.
do Your will.
for i have long given up my life
and its yours now to rip up or mould
to bond or to carve into
and if u would,that i should walk through flames,
Father,i promise i will cry my eyes out
and in pain,scream my throat sore
but do your will father.
do Your will.
i do not understand what i may be asking for
but i know that i mean it.
Only give me the grace through it all,
this i ask.
do Your will.
"My child, This Is my will!
Be at peace...
For i tested you
'in a world of 'rights',
does my Word stand against it all'
You placed it first and now,
be at peace..."
Tremble at His Word, o my soul
Know that my Father is Lord!



PS.Nothing of consequence comes from a decision or from solutions but there is unexplainable peace that the knowledge brings; "Know that my Father is Lord!!!"

Psalm 46:10 Be still, and know that I am God
Colossians 1:17 He is before all things, and in Him all things hold together.
Isaiah 55:8-9 'My thoughts are not your thoughts, Nor are your ways My ways,' says the Lord. 'For as the heavens are higher than the earth, So are My ways higher than your ways, And My thoughts than your thoughts.
