Seeking Approval

So instead, of self-approval
Or seek approval, of others
Know, we’re created for God
For His approval, not another.

Overwhelmed, on our own
We feel helpless, and lost
So set our mind, believe God’s Word
There is victory, through the cross.

With this message, to our culture
A great warning, seek God’s truth
All must face God, in judgment
Our sin, rebellion, has no excuse.

But washed clean, before we offer
As in the Tabernacle, with laver
Now Jesus’ blood, still sanctifies
So, our heart and offerings, find favor.

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

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

Not to us, O Lord
But all the glory, Thine
Unto Thy Name, praise and thanks
For every gift, divine.

So, the standard Islamic narrative
All the stories they tell
Are unfounded, by any facts
For pure deceptions, they fell.

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.
