When I’m Under Standing

Sometimes my understanding

Is with knowledge and with words

Ignorance is banished

My mind is now renewed

But only when I’m understanding

The wisdom of the Lord

Can I truly have the wisdom that I  need

For understanding God

Is to stand under His shadow

And be infused with His knowledge

Which leads to all understanding

So ‘ll be Under Standing God

And walk in all His mercy

And the wisdom He imparts

Will light my way.

 

 

 

Understanding written in response to the Daily Prompt

A Simple Life

Written in response to the prompt from the daily caller

Life often gets  complicated

The time just slips on by.

With work, family and social things

I wish I could sometimes fly

 

I am often off running in circle

To get where I need to be

It’s not that I think it’s annoying

It’s just that I can’t schedule me

 

My Lord says to be a like a child

To live in simplicity

They don’t have a plan book or schedule

They just live by faith in mercy

 

Lord, help me to be like thia child

Who totally trusts in your love

Let me live a life that’s simple

Not complicated with stuff

 

 

Up

I can have joy in the valley
I know that’s where I grow
But when I would see God’s glory
It’s up the mountain I’ll go
The view I can see from the valley
Limits just what I can see
But when I go up to the mountain
The view shows His majesty
I’d rather be up on the mountain
Because up just feels better to me
But when I am down, i can only go up
So the valley’s a good place to be.
