Bound to Christ not emotions Archives - A Doctor's Cure for the Soul

His Earthen Vessels

We’re challenged, on every side
Not crushed, tho’ hard-pressed
But thro’ Jesus, not despairing
Our Great Potter, knows best.

Denying, defending
Denouncing as true
Each weakness and failure
God points out to you?

For when tempted, God provides
A way out, an escape
That we’re able, to endure
So let us learn, avoid mistakes.

But in place of God’s lordship
Satan swiftly deceived
Appealed to their senses
Denied truths, God revealed.

Stay far from temptations
Not seeking our pleasure
Instead, cleaving closer
To Christ, our true treasure.

Not skin color, nor features
Since there’s one human race
Should be all about virtues
Sadly many, have misplaced

God calls us to love
Have a heart that is pure
Not blemished, nor selfish
Repentant, in Him secure.

The deception of Satan
Is no different today
He appeals to our thoughts
To our desires, lead us astray.

Now I’m freed, from being ‘Broigas’
Am reconciled, fully forgiven
And those ‘Broigas,’ toward me
I share forgiveness, God has given.

Our bodies aren’t perfect
Nor is our soul
For sin has disabled
No one is born whole.
