Easily Offended?

And know, that these hurts
In your heart, cause resentment
So, ensure you forgive
Claim His forgiveness, be repentant.

Cease expectations from the other
That we long, they will provide
Our deeper needs, seek from God
So, bear His fruit, in Him abide.

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.

But, if we’ve a low esteem
Always carrying, chronic shame
Subconsciously, ever struggling
Feeling guilt, so casting blame.

When failing, we do wrong
Try to bury, in shame
Then, blame on another
While lies excuses, we proclaim.

Such love, that passes knowledge
With which, you may be filled
With all the fullness of God
Through His Spirit, be fulfilled.

Why do You stand
Afar off, O LORD?
Why do You hide
Amidst troubles, outpoured?

Since am weakened, in my body
And so no longer, can do all
But can rest in my weakness
Upon His strength, I daily call.

God uses all ways
To turn up the heat
To soften our hearts
Our hardness, defeat.
