Deeper yet deeper with God Archives - A Doctor's Cure for the Soul

Deception-Seduction

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

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

“You will show me, the path of life
In Your presence, fullness of joy
Weeping, may endure for a night
But in the morning, comes joy.”

While our Heavenly Father
Knows our struggles and frame
Bids us turn unto Jesus
Humbly call on His Name.

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

So younger or older
Both need to repent
Whether passion or pride
Instead, live as Father meant.

Learn to pray, to trust Him
Become a branch, in His vine
Abiding daily, bear His fruit
So live depending, on God divine.

We must seek God, alone
In the quietness, and pray
Ask God, to guide us
To draw near, every day.
