The Great Carpenter
To renew, and re-fashion
His Word & Spirit transforming
Molding and shaping
To His image, conforming.
The Fear of God
Yes, fear God and His Word
He surely is with us
Learn to fear the LORD
Our salvation, is Jesus.
Temptation
And while God offers good
Temptation brings evil
Understanding our choice
Be His righteous people.
Teaching to Know, or to Obey?
Far too often, we gather
More head knowledge, attained
But little ‘how-to’, or mentoring
So our lives, are not changed.
Taught by Trials
Therefore, welcome your trials
Your waiting, and suffering
Since God is perfecting
Become His fragrant offering.
Take Your Eyes Off the Problem!
For the God who solved sin
Thro’ sending His Son
Can certainly solve
His children’s problems.
Suffering-God’s Path to Blessings
In Jesus’ suffering, God’s path
To bless fallen man
In His cross, our daily dying
God has shown us, His plan.
Suffering Saints
‘In Me, you have peace’
Spoke Jesus, God’s Son
‘In the world, tribulation
Be courageous… I’ve overcome’.
Suffering
When confronted by suffering
With reasons unclear
Will we choose to grow better
Or grow bitter, with fears.
Striving, or Resting?
But, if our vision is great
Let us therefore, come boldly
To His throne of grace
To obtain mercy from God
Come wholly rest, in His grace.
