Walking in the Garden
Taken form “Prophecies and Poems Volume One”
Walking in the Garden, in the cool of the day.
Waiting for Your Voice to come,
to hear what You would say.
This daily task I find myself anticipating with joy.
Like a father who speaks to his son
while just a little boy.
The time we spend together is so precious to me.
By quiet streams and green grasses
are the places where You lead.
Sometimes I hear You say things
that I just don’t understand.
My flesh rejects the suggestion
while my heart accepts the command.
It’s not always easy to obey You
when I really count the cost.
But then Your Spirit reminds me
where I’d be if I were still lost.
So not knowing what lies ahead
of this next step of faith,
I look to Your word which says
I can do all things by Your grace.
Please help me in these times of doubt
when fear tries to creep in.
My heart’s desire is to serve You, Lord,
and not to give in to sin.
Thank You for the promised victory
to those who will obey.
And the chance to talk with You in the Garden
yet another day.
