Poem: For His Name

You do not lead me for my praise.
You do not guide me for my gain.
You draw my heart for your glory.
You carve my path with your love.
You walk with me for your name.

The road of righteousness winds high.
It climbs beyond the valleys of pride.
It cuts through the fields of fear.
It travels the hills of humility.
It shines with the weight of your name.

I am small under the stars you set.
I am weak beside your endless seas.
Still you call me by your righteousness.
Still you lift me by your grace.
Still you walk with me in light.

The steps I take today are yours.
The choices I make are seen by you.
You measure my heart by surrender.
You teach my steps to sing.
You make the journey holy.

Today I walk for your honor, Lord.
Today I step because you called.
Today I live because you lead.
Your name is my north star.
Your name is my greatest song.

The road waits with unseen snares.
The shadows hide broken stones.
But your hand guards my ankles.
Your voice calls me to rise.
Your presence paves the way ahead.

Confidence wears your name today.
It wraps around my worn heart.
It shields my soul from trembling.
It sings louder than my doubts.
It breathes peace into my chest.

I will not shrink from this hour.
I will not run from this climb.
You are my boldness in the storm.
You are my shield in the unknown.

You are the God who keeps me whole.
You are the confidence I carry.

The world pulls with a thousand lies.
The crowd calls with easy answers.
But your voice breaks through the noise.
Your Spirit points to the narrow road.
Your truth anchors my wandering soul.

You guide with patient, steady hands.
You uncover the roots of every lie.
You teach my heart to listen deep.
You stir hunger for what is real.
You pour light into my empty places.

I choose your truth over my pride.
I choose your road over easy ways.
I choose your Word over passing winds.
I choose your Spirit over loud voices.

Today, whisper what my ears forget.
Today, strengthen what wavers within.
You are the road, the song, the fire.
You are the truth I long to follow.

My heart beats to earthly clocks.
I worry over seconds and days.

You do not delay though I fear.

You craft the time with tender hands.
You hold the days without dropping one.

I will wait for the bloom you promised.
You will not forget the planted prayers.
You will not waste the winter waits.
You will make it beautiful in time.

Today I let go of my clocks.
Today I breathe in your slower ways.
You write eternity into my longing.
You hold the beginning and the end.
You are the beauty I cannot lose.

You see the roads I should not take.
You shine your light down better streets.

Your lessons fall like early rain.
Softly soaking stubborn soil.
Breaking the crust of old pride.
Planting seeds of living hope.
Teaching me what freedom feels like.

I do not know the way alone.
I cannot see past the next turn.
But you see the whole, the wide, the end.
You walk beside, not behind.
You teach by presence, not distance.

I kneel to listen today, my God.

You lead wanderers back to life.
You love enough to stay and teach.

You do not leave me to walk alone.
You lead through the final valley.
You breathe life into the fading breath.
You carry me all the way home.

You are the same forever, O God.
You are my guide in life and death.
Your love does not retire or fade.
Your hand holds me now and always.
You are my way and my end.

The days stretch longer than I planned.
But you tell me to stay still.
You breathe strength into the quiet.

My courage feels worn and thin.
My prayers echo in empty fields.
But your hand stitches courage again.
Your voice wraps courage in peace.
Your Spirit speaks into the waiting.

You do not waste the hidden hours.
You do not forget the still places.
You grow roots where no eyes see.
You build strength under the silence.
You prepare songs for the coming light.

I will not run ahead of your voice.
I will not turn away from your call.
Waiting is the work you gave me.
Waiting is the trust you build.
Waiting is the strength you bless.

Today I choose the slower way.
Today I plant my feet in trust.
You strengthen the heart that waits.
You fill the hands that stay open.
You finish the story you began.

The proud rush past your voice.

You carve wisdom into simple hearts.
You place truth in open hands.

The humble lift empty hands to you.
They carry no trophies, no thrones.
You fill them with treasures unseen.
You write lessons on their palms.
You mark their steps with kindness.

You teach what pride cannot hear.
You reveal what strength overlooks.
You show the quiet way of Christ.
You walk softly among the meek.
You whisper justice into their days.

I lower my head before your Word.
I loosen my grip on my plans.
You do not despise the broken.
You do not reject the bowed.
You lead the lowly with delight.

Make my heart soft to your voice.
Make my will bend to your breath.
Teach me not to trust my sight.
Guide me by your patient hand.
Shape me to walk in your way.

The world redraws its maps each day.
The winds rewrite the rules of men.

Your voice holds steady across the ages.
Your promises hold the weight of time.

Generations chase new ideas.
Kingdoms rise and kingdoms fall.
But your Word roots itself deeper still.
Your plans stretch across the dust of years.
Your heart beats through the shifting sands.

I plant my feet where you speak.
I anchor my hope in your ways.
The storms cannot unmake your will.
The fires cannot consume your truth.
The floods cannot erase your name.

When I falter at tomorrow’s edge,
Your counsel steadies my next breath.
When the noise rises around my fears,
Your Word sings louder than the storm.
You guide because you are unchanging.

I will listen when the world forgets.
I will stay when the crowds scatter.
Your counsel will still be standing.
Your voice will still be calling.
Your heart will still be for me.
