Hunger & Thirst for God Archives - A Doctor's Cure for the Soul

Dealing with Difficult People

Learn from Jesus, He set boundaries
Offered help, if ears were open
From the Pharisees, to His disciples
With all, that He had spoken.

LORD God, fill my cup
In love chose to die
Living waters to give
That never runs dry.

Don’t harden your heart
Staying stubborn, defiant
With grievances, grudges
Hard-headed, self-reliant.

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

So, seek first God’s kingdom
His righteousness, daily
Be filled by His Spirit
Spurn sin, as our enemy.

The fool says in his heart
There is no God
Who declares them corrupt
Abominable… none does good?

Start a fire, LORD we ask
And burn up the dross
Great repentance and turning
Before yet more, are lost.

The fear of the LORD
Is the beginning of wisdom
But fools, despise God
His rule, and His kingdom.

So, listen with faith
Trusting God cannot fail
For in wisdom and love
He will always prevail.

And put on the new man
Created according to God
In true righteousness and holiness
In His fullness, now daily trod.
