Pointed True North

Many are the plans in the mind of a man,
     but it is the purpose of the Lord that will stand.
                        Proverbs 19:21 ESV

POINTED TRUE NORTH

    Illusory control,
            God’s instruction clears streets.
We’re addicted to filth; bright angels bathe sore feet.

Our blaze of conviction, dim eyes set on what’s wrong.
            The King of righteousness —
     it’s to Him we belong.

Kenneth Cheney Date: 3/17/2020 12:33:00 PM The great delusion of man, that we are in control. Life is so much more joyous when we surrender all to the King. Login to Reply Kim Rodrigues Date: 3/17/2020 6:52:00 PM So true! Thanks :)
