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.
Why Does God Allow? Psalm 10
Why do You stand
Afar off, O LORD?
Why do You hide
Amidst troubles, outpoured?
Teach us to number our days
We are given each day
For God’s glory, not mine
To obey and to please Him
For His purpose divine.
The Thorn in Our Flesh
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 Permits What He Hates
Stay thankful, midst trials
See the sufferings, we face
When trusting in Jesus
Become blessings, by grace.
Don’t Harden Your Heart
Don’t harden your heart
Staying stubborn, defiant
With grievances, grudges
Hard-headed, self-reliant.
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.
We Are Never Alone
As God’s precious own
We always, are blessed
We are never alone
Amidst trials, that test.
Futility or Fullness?
And put on the new man
Created according to God
In true righteousness and holiness
In His fullness, now daily trod.
Are We Poor in Spirit?
Are we humble and lowly
Or proud, self-serving
Are exalting ourself
Or submissive, subserving?
