Been Offended?

So, each offence forgive
Repent, be reconciled
Be freed from those burdens
Pray God’s love, be recognized.

Yes, if we step out in faith
And walk in His Spirit
Believing, not doubting
His Word, He fulfils it.

So, friend if you’re yearning
God’s blessing and change
Come wrestle with God
‘til your old life’s exchanged.

Your life is too focused
Your God is too small
Look up and beyond
And answer His call.

Cease striving for self
But yielding my all
Surrender each part
My will, for His call.

And should our feet, and road seem hid
Those times are truly sweet
When all we have, is God alone
To guide our steps, oft’ steep.

If God cares for the sparrow
How much more then, for me
For He’s loving and watchful
And His eye, ever sees.

God has called us to love
With all of our heart
When offenders, then hurt us
To forgive, on our part.

Since we all get offended
And respond to each other
To forgive or avenge?
God’s love, or we suffer?

Are we willing to wait
In the darkness, no light?
No hope, but the LORD
Know in you, He delights.
