As I read back over this poem so many years later, I can’t help but think of Keith Green’s song, “When I hear the praises start.” It’s not exactly the same theme, but God’s desire for us to live and seek fulfillment from Him holds true to both. <\/p>\n
\u201cGod\u2019s Plan for my Story\u201d<\/p>\n
Oh My child, how I long to work in you, and give you an amazing life story
\nAs you seek Me out and do My will, living your life for My glory.
\nYet, sometimes you choose to walk away, and allow the world to define your identity,
\nThus choosing for yourself a lesser life than what was planned for you by Me.
\nCome back to Me, o wandering child, turn about and come back to your Creator;
\nWho knows you better than anyone, from your outermost layer to the core.
\nI love you, My child, and long to bless you, but first, you must submit your life to Me.
\nLet Me shape your future, refine your identity, and bring out your best for all to see.
\nYour choices define who you are, and what effect you will leave on the lives of others.
\nSo let My plan be done through your life, and reach out through Christ to your lost sisters and brothers.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
