Faith Stories – Star Word Reflection – Clarity

Written by

in

Last January I shared my experience with my Star Word “Journey” and I am still on that journey. When I received my new Star Word “Clarity” I knew that my journey was about to become clearer. On January 13, 2024, I wrote two acrostic poems and two prayers. I would like to share them with you before I elaborate on my journey in clarity.

Clearness
Lucid
Awareness
Ready
Insightful
Transparent
Yearning

Lord Jesus as I sit and ponder the word “CLARITY” my mind can’t help but wonder what you want to make clear to me. Last year we went on a “JOURNEY” and it has been stressful and rewarding all at the same time. I have done things I’ve only dreamed about, and I have come out of my comfort zone many
times over the past year. Lord Jesus I will continue to trust you as we move forward on our journey together. Give me clarity, keep me lucid and aware of everything around me. I yearn to be insightful even if being transparent is uncomfortable. Lord Jesus, I love you and I thank you. Amen

CLARITY
Clarity will come as I pray to You
Clarity will come as I trust You
Clarity will come as I follow You
Clarity will come as I love You
Clarity will come as I seek You
Clarity will come as I worship You
Clarity will come as I live for You
Clarity will come as I serve You
Clarity will come as I give my life to You
Amen

Clearly lead me Lord
Lovingly guide me Lord
Always be with me Lord
Ready I will be Lord
Insist that I listen Lord
Turn me around if I get lost Lord
Yes Lord

My grandmother always said, “Be careful what you pray for”. I guess I had a moment of amnesia when I penned those words. God revealed so many things this past year to me. Relax, I have narrowed it down to my top four things.

  1. Family matters, you are blessed to have one even if it is a little dysfunctional.
  2. Be flexible, sometimes God will change your plans and you have to be willing to go wherever He sends you.
  3. Be generous, give freely without expecting anything in return.
  4. Love, love God, love people and love yourself because everyone deserves love including you.

Praise God for clarity as I continue my journey with Him.
