Flow Like A River

Flow Like A River 

By Dr Marilyn Bouniu

You are not made 

To do nothing 

You are made 

For good works 

You are not meant

To remain still like a lake 

But you are meant 

To flow like a river and save 

The sick and dying 

The broken and hurting 

The lost and helpless 

In need of forgiveness 

God gave you His Holy Spirit

Within you of limitless power 

Not to remain still but to flow

Like a river of life to others

Worldy things to love 

Rejoice exceedingly

Despite suffering and war

Live By The Word Of God

By Dr Marilyn Bouniu

Do you live by 

The Lord's Word 

Or simply by 

What seems good?

Do you make decisions

Based on feelings 

Or careful decisions 

With God's leading?

Do you have meaning,

Direction and purpose in life

Or just responding

To situations that arise?

Are you influenced by the 

Circumstances around you 

Or by the Holy Spirit

Living right inside of you?

Allow God and His Word 

To be your constant guide 

Trust and obey God's Word

In Him fully abide

Then you will see that all will remain 

Eternally on the Cornerstone
