Weekend Words & Sunday Stanzas – 05/11/2014
IT IS MOTHERS’ DAY! HAPPY MOTHER’S DAY!
Remember, Proverbs 31 was written as advice from a mother, so go find some godly, maternal wisdom at Proverbial Thought!
The poem today is also fitting, as it talks about walking the right way. Parents are supposed to help guide their children, and that is exactly what God wishes to do with all of those adopted through the blood of His Son, Jesus Christ.
just off the path
they call it the straight and narrow
but just how well can we follow
what if in all of our attempts
just to the right or the left
is where it turns out we have
been in relation to the path
what if while we have been talking
with those with whom we are walking
only to come to realize
that our half truths are still lies
not really following Christ
but being just to the left or right
instead of walking just off the path
we should have our thoughts recast
we should line up our lives
with His loving heart and mind
to remain on the path of God
we must watch where our minds trod
we must study the scriptures
and look to our Savior
break bread with one another
and help our needy brothers
we need to pray continually
and praise our God Almighty
to stay on the Path of our King
we need to give Him everything
