' “Why do you call me ‘Lord, Lord,’ and don’t do the things I say?
I will show you what someone is like who comes to me, hears my words, and acts on them: '
Luke 6:46-47 CSB
Mugla, Turkey. Beautiful sunset (2015)
His foundation is in the Holy mountains
The Lord loves the gates
For He is the door to life everlasting
He is the Alpha and the Omega
Nothing is too hard for You Lord
Life is messy and sometimes the ground seems
The focus of our attention
But You, O Lord, are a God full of compassion and gracious
Patience and abundant in mercy and truth
For time and time again, You lead us the right path
You bring the nuggets to us daily
Even when we don’t deserve it
Because You Lord are the Root and offspring of David
Our Bright and Morning star
Who sees the broken pieces
And makes it into a beautiful portrait
Frames it and displays the glory of the Father
With the scars to show
The compassion of the Father
Who is slow to anger and filled
With unfailing love and faithfulness
Forgives our rebellion and sin
But does not excuse the guilty
Gives strength to Your servant, Lord
That we will listen and obey
That we will defend and not turn a blind eye
Let Your Name be glorified in all we do
For You are Holy and Salvation is found only in You
Now therefore our God
We thank You
And praise Your glorious Name
