Changing Our Perspective
By Ken L.
Birks
Weakened by the circumstances of life,
We cry in desperation.
Broken
and shattered without hope, we cry out
in frustration.
Caught
in a web of self-pity and misery, we
complain, giving into strife.
Where
does help come from, our spirits cry out
in exasperation.
Where
are Your precious promises of all things
that pertain unto life?
In the
stillness of the moment He whispers, “I
respond to faith not pity.
Allow
My Spirit and Word to change your
perspective from moaning.”
We
discover, it is the Word that gives
life, not our commiserating.
As we
acknowledge Him in all our ways, our
paths will be revealed.
As His
Spirit gives life, He gives wind to our
sails as we yield.
As
perspective begins to change, strength
begins to pour through.
Vessels are filled with fresh wind as we
give heed to His Spirit anew.
With
obedience to His Word and Spirit comes
transformation foretold.
Mounting up on the wings of an eagle,
supernatural strength takes hold.
The
weariness that once gripped the soul
disappears into the night.
As we allow
the wind of God to take us to places
unknown, faith erupts.
We now
see beyond our circumstances with
strength that interrupts.
Flowing towards us in the distance we
see the blessings of the Father.
With
abundance in sight and fervency rising
within, we rush forward.
As we
take pleasure in Him, we no longer cry
out to be heard.
As His
precious promises take hold, we give
thanks to Him above.
As we
trust in Him, we learn to be content in
whatever state thereof.
His
presence continually gives us the
strength to move onward.
His
grace is sufficient in all circumstances
as we lean into Him.
What a
difference a change in perspective makes
when filled to the brim.
