Calling on God Archives - A Doctor's Cure for the Soul

Adversity? – God means it for good

And so, no matter our lot
Walk by faith, and not sight
Cling to God’s Word, His grace
Midst our darkness, His light.

So, in place of self-searching
And following our feelings
Rather obey the LORD
Be wise, wait upon His leading.

But blessed is the man
Who trusts in the LORD,
And whose hope, is the LORD
Shall see blessings out-poured.

“Now the just shall live by faith
But if anyone draws back,
My soul has no pleasure in him.”
So, seek much faith, do not lack.

And learn daily to forgive
Reflecting God’s love
For His goodness and kindness
Daily depend, from above.

“To revive the spirit, of the humble
Revive the heart, of those contrite”
Our Master Potter, can reshape
We His clay, remold aright.

Cease expectations from the other
That we long, they will provide
Our deeper needs, seek from God
So, bear His fruit, in Him abide.

For parents aren’t perfect
They come with their baggage
May kids grow, self-examine
To avoid long-term damage.

But, if we’ve a low esteem
Always carrying, chronic shame
Subconsciously, ever struggling
Feeling guilt, so casting blame.

Why do You stand
Afar off, O LORD?
Why do You hide
Amidst troubles, outpoured?
