Who Am I That Thou Art Mindful Of Me

Who am I that Thou art mindful of me?
As I ponder these many years
Whatever I asked for You did give
And for the times You didn’t honor my request
It turned out to be for the best
And for that You didn’t at all give
Happily without it I learned to live
So, who am I that Thou art mindful of me?

We are as unequal as could be
I’m a working person depending on a job to live
You don’t need to work
You own the earth and cattle on a thousand hills Ps. 50
If I spoke who would gather to hear?
Yet, when you spoke the mountains shook, people trembled in fear Ex. 20
So, who am I that Thou art mindful of me?

Maybe I should ask who art You?
You are the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob
The Lord Jesus is Your Son
And You’re mindful because You’re merciful and gracious
You’re such a wonderful One.
Scripture Reference: Psalm 8:4

He’s The God Who Keeps On Giving

I was determined to attend this dinner in the community
Not expecting anything, just going out of curiosity
Ended up sitting across from someone
To whom I rattled on and on
About how the resources in the neighborhood were long gone
And no one has stepped up to revive and carry on

Little did I know, the the person I told
Was an organizer and leader
So, the resources I did seek, were sitting across from me
Just when I thought, I’ll never again have that thing
God opened a new an opportunity
As He’s the God who keeps on giving

Before the end, another person passed out a sheet
With a day and time for attendees to meet
To discuss new resources and things to be
Here was the second opportunity
God unexpectedly gave to me

Who is this God who keeps on giving?
This God is I Am that I Am
The God of Jacob, Issac and Abraham (Exodus 3:14-15)
Creator of heaven and earth
The father of our Lord and Savior Christ Jesus
He’s the God who keeps on giving.

Perfect Peace

What if the outcome does not favor me?
I strongly pondered how unjust it would be
Yet while conjuring up the course of remedy
You blanketed me in a perfect peace

In life there are no guarantees
Things don’t always come out they way they should be
I had a hard time understanding why inequality
Yet, You’ve given me a perfect peace

Regardless of the outcome in the midst You’ll be
I’ve put my trust in Thee
You know why, but I can’t see
So, I’m in perfect peace

You have wondrous abilities
After all, You created heaven, earth and seas (Genesis, chapter 1)
I realize its no need to worry
No matter what, me You’ll keep
WithYour wonderful blanket of perfect peace.
