| Psalm 7:14–16 reminds us that life has a return. The things we plant—our choices, our habits, our words—grow into something that eventually comes back to us. Scripture doesn’t frame this as punishment; it frames it as wisdom. God shows us that the seeds we sow shape the harvest we receive. And yet, even when we plant poorly, His kindness meets us with another chance to turn, to choose differently, to walk in the light again. This poem is a reflection of that gentle truth: that God invites us to build what brings life, to sow what reflects His heart, and to trust that His mercy can redirect any path we’ve taken. What we build returns to us—so let it be His love. |
I’ve been moving fast without Your light,
sowing things that circle back in time.
But Your kindness meets me where I stand,
showing me a better way again.
You’re not pushing me with fear or shame—
You’re inviting me to choose Your name.
What I build returns to me;
so let it be Your love I bring.
Let my hands sow what is true;
let my life reflect in You.
You are mercy, You are light,
You are wisdom for the fight.
Lead me, Lord, in all I do—
let my path come back to You.
Trouble grows when I plant the wrong seed,
but You’re gentle when You call me to see.
Not a punishment from far away,
just the fruit of choices every day.
So I turn again to Your steady grace,
to the truth that keeps my heart in place.
Let my words be building something kind;
let my actions leave Your hope behind.
Every moment is a chance to choose
what honors You in all I do.
When the world pulls hard to lead me wrong,
You remind me where I still belong.
Write Your wisdom on my heart;
guide my steps in every part.
What I plant is what I’ll see—
let it all bring life to me.
Turn my choices toward Your grace;
let compassion fill this place.
What I build returns to me;
so let it be Your love I bring.
Let my hands sow what is true;
let my life reflect in You.
You are mercy, You are light,
You are wisdom for the fight.
Lead me, Lord, in all I do—
let my path come back to You.
