Be Still

Sometimes I ask the question,

"My Lord, is this your will?"

It's then I hear you answer me,

"My Precious Child....be still."

Sometimes I feel frustrated,

Cause I think I know what's best,

It's then I hear you say to me,

"My Busy Child....just rest."

"I know the plans I have for you,

The wondrous things you'll see;

If you can just be patient, Child,

And put your trust in Me.

I've plans to draw you closer,.

I've plans to help you grow.

There's much I do you cannot see,

And much you do not know.

But know this, Child....I LOVE YOU!

You are Precious unto Me.

Before I formed you in the womb,

I planned your destiny.

I've something very special

I hope for you to learn.

The gifts I wish to give to you,

Are gifts you cannot earn.

They come without a price tag,

But not without a cost;

At Calvary, I gave Myself,

So you would not be lost.

Rest, Child, and do not weary,

Of doing what is good.

I promise I'll come back for you,

Just like I said I would.

Your name is written on my palm,

I never could forget;

Therefore, do not be discouraged when,

My answer is...."Not Yet."
