“For God watches how people live; he sees everything they do” (Job 34:21; NLT).
“Follow me and be my disciple,” Jesus said to him (Matthew 9:9; NLT).
“So if the Son sets you free, you will be free indeed” (John 8:36; NIV).
“I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full” (John 10:10; NLT).
Lord,
You create us in your image,
Then step aside,
To let us get on
With our lives.
But you watch –
To see if we will search for you,
Listen to your voice,
And seek your face.
You wait –
To see if we will follow your Son,
Who comes to set us free,
And give us life to the full.
