Here and Now

Challenged to move into our neighborhoods
And dwell among our neighbors as Jesus did.
He came and dwelt among us.

Look around at the people
Here and now,
Not ahead to what might be
Or is to come.
Be faithful in the little things
Here and now.
Then you will be entrusted with more
Later.

So it was that I was challenged
To follow my call
Here and now.
Dwell among my neighbors,
Love them as Jesus loved,
And share with them how He is working
Here and now.

Lord, give me strength for what is ahead.
May I prove your faithful servant
Here and Now.
