Amidst a busy schedule that is filled with all my plans
I can end up too distracted to ask God to lead the way.
If I listen for His guidance, if I reach out for His hand,
He’ll teach me what’s important, what His Words to me convey.
Lord help me keep my heart attuned to listen and to hear
The words you have to say to me, to place inside my heart.
It’s not a sound that’s audible, like whispers in my ear,
But rather something beautiful that sets Your words apart.
Lord show me ways to spread Your love to those in need I see.
Lord keep my focus fixed on You no matter where I go.
You sent Your Holy Spirit Lord, to live inside of me,
I pray that I can listen Lord, learn things I need to know.
Regardless of my schedule Lord, the things I’ve planned to do,
I pray that I can hear You Lord, each day learn something new.
John, this is Jeaninne Stokes . I was the guest speaker back in April at the writers meeting at the Richardson library. I like your poems and just wanted to encourage you to keep writing for Him!☝️
