Forgive and Forgo
God has called us to love
With all of our heart
When offenders, then hurt us
To forgive, on our part.
Forgivers or Sufferers?
Since we all get offended
And respond to each other
To forgive or avenge?
God’s love, or we suffer?
Wrestling with God
There at Penuel, he met God
Truly saw, face to face
How he struggled, prevailed
Saw God’s mercy and grace.
A Search for Meaning
There, discover our answers
In Christ Jesus, God redeeming
We are made, for God’s purpose
By His Spirit, fulfill our meaning.
Waiting for Apologies?
“If you won’t forgive
God won’t forgive you”.
Strong words from the Master
Yet certain and true.
The Unworthy
Such love, cost Him all
Now, God counts us worthy
Exchanging His Son
For the sinful, unworthy.
Seek Repentance
Seek, true fruits of repentance
As you search your heart
A new walk, not just talk
By God’s Spirit, a new start.
Rebelling against God
So repent and return
Submit to God, full of favor
Desires only our good
Obey Christ, as your Savior.
Pressing into God
So, draw near to God
Repentant and yearning
Hungering and thirsting
Worshiping, and learning.
Our Great Physician
By His stripes, we are healed
Jesus’ death, on the Cross
Now delivered from judgment
He paid the full cost.
