This morning’s sermon was based on the Book of Romans 8:18-39 merged with the idea of seizing this day to do those things we really know we should.

Seizing My Day
by Michael Romani

Oh, just to begin again...
Free from trouble and sin
This is the perplexing turmoil
That I am find that I'm in

To seize the present
To love and not resent
Conquering my stress
About things I do confess

Being anxious about nothing
Raising my voice as I sing
Knowing the peace and joy
Bringing love not to annoy

Nothing goes well with stress
As though a perpetual test
Feeling too, too weighed down
Certain I wear a jester's crown

It's really down to a matter of choices
The things we say in all of our voices
Taking right perspective in how we see
That will get us past all adversities

God is present with each of us always
Getting us through all of our days
Each breath we take in every move made
God is with us in every moment prayed

Even days that I forget to turn and pray
If I look around, God is vividly on display
I must choose to be present with him
In every moment moving beyond all whim

There is no such thing as the random
We know this as children of the kingdom
Each thing is to produce God's good purpose
Reliance on this is all that's left to us

Each of us becoming God's planned intention
In all of the things in life we could mention
We need to look at the big picture every day
To see it's fruition come true in every way

The deeper life is each of ours for the taking
Sharing, caring and being in lives worth making
Each step to be accepted as toward the good
Prayerfully giving up all for Him as we should
