Working Grace

There is a time in our walk when the rubber meets the road.

All the prayer, all the teaching, all the studying, all the seeking....then that one call comes. The hardest thing that God could call me to do...and I do it.

Sometimes it is fun serving the Lord, sometimes the reward is greater than anything we could predict, but sometimes...

Sometimes we just do it. Through weariness, through sadness, through kindness, and most of all because of love.

We do it.

Then in a moment the Miracle happens. The burden is lifted. The freedom comes to live life that is not my way.

A life not led by my selfishness, by my needs, by my wants. Oh sweet freedom. Freedom to love. Freedom to serve.

Oh kneel me down again
Here at your feet
Show me how much you love humility
Oh spirit be the star
That leads me to
A humble heart of Love that I see in you.
