God's Presence 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.

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.

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

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.

As God’s precious own
We always, are blessed
We are never alone
Amidst trials, that test.

Without a vision
The people will perish
Need a future and hope
God’s Word, to cherish.

Yes, held to God’s Word
His promises, and provision
Believed God would guide
Abraham’s hope and vision.

For His love in Christ Jesus
Our Lord, is love eternal
We are forever, in His hand
More than secure, His love encircles.
