Integrity

Integrity. 
Its words and ways 
necessary 
in sites of work 
and ministry. 
Homes. 
Inner rooms. 
Behind closed doors. 
In the street, 
store, 
outdoor space. 
Every place.

Chosen

“It would not be right for us to neglect the ministry of the word of God in order to wait on tables” (Acts 6:2).

And Stephen is chosen. To wait on tables. 

Doing so full of grace. 

Full of God’s power.

Faithful in the ways of the Lord.

Sovereign

Unknowns pile up, left and right. Closed doors and uncertainty overwhelm. At the ends of the earth. 

Amidst this confusion of crossroads. During a certain season in our lives. Fears creep in. Uninvited.

Then. In the weight of urgent prayer, a passage of Scripture whispers in my thoughts.

Rising gently. Firmly. Pressing through the questions and concerns.

A hymn of praise. Penned by Paul. 

About the Sovereign One.
