Simpler Times

There is great joy in knowing you can do more with less.

Often times people can long for the past childhood they have ‘lost’ or look forward to a life of retirement where there is no worry but just time with loved ones.

In between there is all this striving, climbing, backstabbing. But it’s all ashes in the wind. There is no lasting impact from all this labor.

There isn’t much one needs to be happy. All the treasures I reap in this world I can’t bring to the next.

When life is simpler, it is certainly better.

Can’t believe I wanted to do this.

Not finished with me yet

Still wondering why I’m here
Still wrestling with my fear
But Oh He’s up to something
And the farther out I go
I’ve seen enough to know
That I’m not here for nothing
He’s up to something.

There is hope for me yet
Because God won’t forget
All the plans He’s made for me
I’ll just have to wait and see
He’s not finished with me yet.

God, I’m hungry for your glory to be unleashed

It’s the deepest hunger of my soul.

So much wisdom for someone so young.

Psalm 116

I love the Lord, because he has heard
my voice and my pleas for mercy.

Because he inclined his ear to me,
therefore I will call on him as long as I live.

The snares of death encompassed me;
the pangs of Sheol laid hold on me;

I suffered distress and anguish.
Then I called on the name of the Lord:
“O Lord, I pray, deliver my soul!”

Gracious is the Lord, and righteous;
our God is merciful.

The Lord preserves the simple;
when I was brought low, he saved me.

Return, O my soul, to your rest;
for the Lord has dealt bountifully with you.

For you have delivered my soul from death,
my eyes from tears,
my feet from stumbling;

I will walk before the Lord in the land of the living.

God is Up to Something

God, you’re doing something big in Oakland through your church. I’m excited to be a part of it. It’s a privilege. Use me Lord, in whichever way you deem is the best to bring You glory to this city.

Lord, Help adjust my attitude when I am dragging my feet and lose sight of Christ’s beauty. When I rely on my flesh to give me strength instead of your Spirit. When I want comfort and have hunger pangs for home. Lord my Soul longs for Heaven, but until that day, let me be faithful to wherever you have me. Renew this city. Renew these people. Lord, let Your Spirit come. Descend and manifest your glory here.
