Captain of our soul Archives - A Doctor's Cure for the Soul

Our ‘Flesh’ has to Die

So have we died with Christ
Our flesh on the Cross?
Are we carnal and selfish
Or count all things as loss?

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

Jesus taught us to pray
To our Father in heaven
For His kingdom and will
And not living, for leaven.

Be not discouraged, nor despair
As He prepares you, in Christ
Working all things for good
By grace in Him, fully sufficed.

God declared unto Abram
I will bless those, who bless you
And I will curse him, who curses you
All families on earth, blessed thro’ you.

God has written in letters
Thro’ DNA, in code
Within every cell
His signature, bestowed.

Yes, keep praying and asking
For God’s kingdom to come
Despite men’s hardened hearts
Know His will, shall be done!

Know God’s Word, teaches both
God’s sovereignty, His will
But also, our heart’s free choice
To stay hardened, or Spirit filled.

Grip my heart, with Your Truth
I am loved, beyond measure
Despite all my failures
In Christ, I’m You’re treasure.

You are my hiding place
And also my shield
I hope in Your Word
There Your love, revealed.
