Fret Not

 Fret Not

Fret not if you do not understand. 

There is a greater calling beyond man. 

Your ministry is not of this age.

Have faith, as you turn the page. 

A day is coming for you and others. 

A day where you will minister with your brothers. 

That longing in your heart you have always felt.

Was put there by me where I have always dwelt.

I have a bigger plan for the entire earth.

And many will take part who now question their worth. 

I look not at the great inventions man has discovered. 

It was me who let them see what I alone have uncovered.

I am not impressed by monetary sacrifice. 

Or by those who are generous and nice. 

Because those are simply works of the flesh,

But without me they all still lead to death. 

Fret not because I have not unfolded my plan.

I will, in my own time, help all understand. 

But only I know the time and the hour 

When I will reveal myself with glory and with power. 

I give you small hints, at times, of what is to come.

Before I call you to rule and reign with my Son. 

That is when you will see the fruits of your labor

The lives touched when you followed me and I extended my favor. 

Fret not, because even though you feel that seed that you planted–

Fell on rocky places and many words recanted. 

Have faith because with your human eyes you cannot see–

My purpose in the earth and divine decree.

Fret not my child, all things are under my watchful eye. 

Though it makes no sense and you can't understand why. 

Those who have faith in me in the midst of all they see. 

Are the ones who will minister before me.
