Show Notes

Let my life, here, nowBe about You, let me follow.Let my future, each step, decision Be about You, not my own opinion.Let the air I breathe, filling me Be air from You, fresh and free.Let my heart, my plansBe about You, in Your hands.Let my goals, my dreams, my reason Be what You want for this season.Let my hurt, my misery, my pain Be healed by You as You sustain.Let my contacts, my family, my friendsBe in good standing, let me make amends.Let my trust, my beliefs, my coreBe always deeper, pressing into You more  Emily Acker. Once we’ve put our trust in Jesus, believing He died and rose from the dead, we can know that God is always with us through His Holy Spirit, His Word, and His people. He shapes every moment of our lives. How could this truth affect the way we live day-to-day? Consider taking a moment to read this poem again, and then pray your own prayer to God. .Therefore, I urge you, brothers and sisters, in view of God’s mercy, to offer your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to Godthis is your true and proper worship. Romans 12:1 (NIV)
