God’s Will; Our Cup

As believers,

We pause and ponder

Upon God and His awesome wonders

It may slightly blow with a soft breeze

Or rush through us like a mighty wind

Whether soft or whether mighty

It is in our stillness

And quiet seeking

Of His voice

Listening for His perfect will.

 

Hearkening unto His voice, that guides

In place of quiet solitude

Is better than a man’s many words

Spoken in vain.

When our speech is hushed

Our ears are open

To the Creator and also to others.

A quite hush renders clear vision

He cannot be heard in screams and cries

Of fleshly will

In wilderness seeking

But His Sovereign Will can be found

In the stillness of the morning hours

Or midnight mediations.

 

God’s thoughts are higher than our own thoughts

His ways are higher than our own ways

Jehovah Elohim is All – Powerful

He is always near

He is omniscient, All – Knowing

He has a plan

For all our lives are set in motion

According to His will.

 

Our cup may be filled with undesirables

But is our cup of afflictions flavorless?

Jesus lifted his cup of grief

Seeking His Father’s will

But God’s plan had been poured

And in a quiet solitude,

He found peace;

Acceptance.

 

Do we accept what has been poured?

Can we hear His voice amidst our wilderness cries-?

Screaming in the center of our dark cloud?

When we pause…

Listen…

Allowing the breeze or wind to blow

Our spirit, our soul, of our earthly vessels

Are open to hear His will;

Understanding the cup that has been poured.

 

Our cup will overflow,

With God’s blessed will

In our lives we can see Him move

Mightily in the storms and quiet walks

Contentment is found

In His loving arms.

Confidence

In His strong right hand.

In any situation, we will know

It was all His plan.
