George Stuart - Moving forward in belief

When we ponder what we value,

When we search our past belief,

Then we struggle to surrender

What we’ve known that’s brought relief.

Explanations are more complex

Than the answers we’ve been taught;

Wisdom from the past can lead us,

But we now probe every thought.

We are called to venture forward;

We are challenged to review

Our beliefs and our behaviour;

Always seeking what is true.

If we linger and are passive,

If fear makes us hesitate,

We may find life moves beyond us,

And we can’t participate.

God inside calls us to venture;

Calls to risk and be aware;

Calls to go and meet the future;

Be assured that God is there.
