Sealed, Stamped, Secured by Christ
Since we were purchased, by His blood
The price, now fully paid
Sealed and stamped for eternity
We’re counted righteous, be not afraid.
Faith in God, not the Flesh
And learn daily to forgive
Reflecting God’s love
For His goodness and kindness
Daily depend, from above.
Be the Fragrance of Christ
Recognizing we are created
To always bring God, His glory
To uplift, and choose His will
To live for Him, life’s not my story.
RELATIONSHIPS
Cease expectations from the other
That we long, they will provide
Our deeper needs, seek from God
So, bear His fruit, in Him abide.
Our Personal Baggage
For parents aren’t perfect
They come with their baggage
May kids grow, self-examine
To avoid long-term damage.
Shame-Blame Cycle
But, if we’ve a low esteem
Always carrying, chronic shame
Subconsciously, ever struggling
Feeling guilt, so casting blame.
Be Filled, with Christ’s Love
Such love, that passes knowledge
With which, you may be filled
With all the fullness of God
Through His Spirit, be fulfilled.
Dealing with Difficult People
Learn from Jesus, He set boundaries
Offered help, if ears were open
From the Pharisees, to His disciples
With all, that He had spoken.
Not Focused on Church Buildings
Jesus finished, His atonement
Yet His ministry, was incomplete
Left His mission, disciple-making
We are commanded, to complete.
Will You Answer God?
O how selfish, and sinful
We keep God’s Word within
Are not praying and sharing
With our world, so full of sin.
