On a late winter morning

Oktoc road this morning
Is beautiful, the sun is bright
It’s a late winter morning
We hope there’ll soon be much green
to reflect the light.
And I wonder,
Am I hopeful
As the early spring?
Am I anticipating sunshine, or thunder
Am I trusting
Or giving in to foreboding and fear?
Do I trust the One who made me and saved me
Simply resting
In the palm of His almighty hand?
Yes, I choose to trust my Father
Who has a perfect, beautiful plan.
A plan for me to prosper
And grow in His grace
As I come in humility, and look upon His face.
May I ne’er forget,
To behold His hands and feet,
Nail-pierced for me,
My sins to erase.
So, with courage and gratitude
I pray that my mind be renewed
And my heart be strengthened
With His power endued.
