My Guiding Light

Leave a reply 
 All of my life I have been searching for someone to help me out
 All of my days are spent in wandering about
 All of my trials and temptations don’t lead me anywhere
 I have not figured out why I am here
  
 I have looked to drugs and alcohol to bring me some relief
 But they only added to me sense of grief
 I had money, I was wealthy, I had riches and much fame
 But life only seemed to be a tiresome game
  
 Then I found the Lord or He found me
 And He told me what I was made to be
 A child of God and forever free
 Now He’s here walking with me
  
 Jesus is my guiding light
 Jesus is my help at night
 Jesus is the one who saved my soul
 From the depths below
  
 Now I choose to walk with Him and He shows me the way
 His love shadows over me each day
 I have given everything to follow in His past
 Because I know it will last
  
 I know the Lord and he knows me
 All that I do and all that I see
 I pray that He will help me be
 All that He has desired for me
  
 Jesus is my guiding light
 Jesus is my help at night
 Jesus is the one who saves my soul
 From the depths below

You Are My Destiny

Leave a reply

Rivers in the desert
Manna down from heaven
All that I desire
Comes alive in you

Mercy everlasting
Grace that knows no measure
Love uncompromising
Comes alive in you

Lord keep me safe in your arms
Lord give me rest from all harm
Only in you can I find peace
You are my destiny

All of our lives we search after meaning. Why am I here? What am I supposed to accomplish? What purpose is there for me? These questions, whether we want to admit it or not, flow through our minds day in and day out. They can drive us to do things that are not meant to be done. They can make us say things that should not be spoken. If someone gets in our way, we demand they move. If someone should offend us, we want to get even. All this because we have not yet found the real path that are lives are bound for. We have wandered and sometimes made our own path, thinking surely this will be the right way to go.

There is only one path. There is only on way. Our destiny is fulfilled once we accept Jesus Christ as our Savior. When we find His grace and mercy true rest comes. Rest for our wandering hearts. Rest for our weary souls. Our eternal destination, our destiny, is in Him. Once we have arrived there, the journey has just begun. From this point on life becomes a mission.

Philippians 3:13-14 King James Version
13 Brethren, I count not myself to have apprehended: but this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before,
14 I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.
