God restores us Archives - A Doctor's Cure for the Soul

The Role of a Pastor

His primary goal, our salvation
Our atonement, kept His Word
Yet first trained, His disciples
To spread His Gospel, to the world.

So daily put on, the new man
In God’s likeness, created
In true righteousness, holiness
Daily victorious, and elated.

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

Rest in Him, and wait patiently
Fret not o’er those who prosper
Those working wicked ways
Whose works are improper.

Once we’re strong in the Lord
And the power of His might
In the armor of God
Each temptation takes flight.

Blessed is the man
Who does not walk
In ungodly counsel
But ignores, such talk.

We’re all called, to the unreached
Ask God, direct each day
Through praying, sharing, giving
See more disciples, that obey.

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

But washed clean, before we offer
As in the Tabernacle, with laver
Now Jesus’ blood, still sanctifies
So, our heart and offerings, find favor.

Not to dwell, on sin and failure
Rather focus, on the LORD
See beyond, my upset feelings
Trusting God, see blessings poured.
