A Faithful Life…A Transformed Life

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

So, live not for this world
That will soon pass away
But, for our calling, eternal
To trust God, and obey.

With each worldview different answers,
Made in God’s image, Judeo-Christian.
With only Jesus addressing evil,
Conquered sin, restores and listens.

Who am I, my meaning?
Just why am I here?
My purpose, my mission?
Few have ears to hear.

Tho’ many called, few are chosen
The self-righteous, are cast out
Into outer darkness
All the unclean, not allowed.

So coming daily, in repentance
Wash me whiter than snow
The blood of Jesus, still cleanses
God’s forgiveness, ever flows.

Let us pray, for repentance
Share Jesus’ Good News
But despair not, at injustice
God will avenge, if they refuse.

With my heart, ever hungry
Am so thirsty Lord, for You
So desiring, Your Presence
Your Word, is ever true.

So, we celebrate Christmas
But are missing the Messiah
No manger no mention
Of our need, to look higher.

This mystery unfolded
God reached out as man
As the Lord of Creation
As Messiah, His plan.
