“WAIT FOR THE LORD”

“Be strong, and let your heart take courage, all you who wait for the Lord!”

Psalm 31:24 ESV

Be strong, I am with you

Fear not, I am making all things new

My love is steadfast, be very courageous

Seek after my righteousness

In the strength of my might

By faith, fight the good fight

Believe in me and receive grace upon grace

Be wise, direct your heart in my ways

Do not be afraid, I will be with you there

Where your heart is lies your treasure

With your whole heart trust in me

I have overcome the world with love and mercy

More than the morning watchmen, stay true

Wait for me, I will deliver you

May your soul wait and hope in my word

Quietly wait for the salvation of your Lord

Patiently wait for me, I hear your cries

Behold, every perfect gift comes down from the Father of lights!

I have been writing poetry since I was a teenager, but it wasn’t until a few of years ago that my writing became more spiritual and at the same time more prolific. As I shared my poetry with my wife, Hannah, and a few good friends, they encouraged me to place the poems in book form. My first book endeavor was “Because Of Him”, published in 2017. After hearing Sammy Murimi, the director of Share International Inc., speak at our church, I decided that the proceeds from that book would be donated to Share. In 2018, Hannah and I were privileged to go to Turkanaland in Kenya on a mission trip with Share. It was a life-changing experience for us both. Some of the inspiration from that trip is expressed in my second book, “His Cup Pours Out”. I include scripture verses with my poems because most of the poems I have written were inspired by reading God’s Word. I hope that as you visit this blog, you will meditate on the scripture verses and write down your prayers and thoughts for the week. My goal for this project has always been that God would be glorified! Robert M Hinnen
