God Is My Director
God is my Director toward the glorious future
Against challenges that may build up or torture…
He strengthens my faith for Scripture-anchored venture
Till I become His perfect creature!
God is my Director toward spiritual radiance
Against achievements that may cause arrogance or defiance…
He reveals my humility’s sincere appearance
Till I show Him my submissiveness of complete reliance!
God is my Director toward fruitful service
Against slothfulness that may speak of disinterest or malice…
He assesses my labour’s diligence as His divine edifice
Till I exert my best effort with righteous practice!
God is my Director* toward holy living
Against hypocrisy that may bring selfish glorying or guilty cleaving…
He rebukes my hidden motives needing His reproving
Till I present well-doing sacrifices worthy of His approving!
*2Thessalonians 3:5 And the Lord direct your hearts into the love of God, and into the patient waiting for Christ.
