I can hear the least of these, crying out so desperately
And I know we are the hands and feet of You, oh God
So if You say move, it’s time for me to follow through
And do what I was made to do, and show them who You are
To stand and watch the weary and lost
Cry out for help
I refuse to turn my back and try and act
Like all is well
I refuse to stay unchanged, to wait another day
To die to myself
I refuse to make one more excuse

It is so easy to sit around and not do anything. It is much harder to do something about our problems or the issues we see around us. All we need to do is ask God to help us be strong and give us the courage to do what is right. There are some who do not have to pray about it. They already know what they need to do…and they embrace the challenge.
We can all find this kind of courage, especially when we read the Psalms. Who much more can we follow than David? Through his ups and downs, David always praised God. As David went through his struggles and victories, it is also a reminder of our future Savior and King—Jesus.
Jesus, when he was in the garden of Gethsemane, prayed for God to take away what was going to happen. But, because it was not God’s plan, Jesus accepted His fate and completed His journey for His Father.

Heavenly Father, we love You and thank You for sending us great examples for us to follow. We want to be a light for You in this confused world. Forgive us for being complacent and lazy. Light a fire under us to share your awesome truths. In Jesus’ name, amen.
