Do not forsake God Archives - A Doctor's Cure for the Soul

Are You Blessed or Cursed?

And so be wise, do not be foolish;
Do trust the LORD, to lead your way;
Not self-reliant, nor lean on others;
Instead to trust God, and obey?

And so do ponder, on your life;
To daily depend, upon the LORD;
Or just rely, on your own efforts;
Be cursed & withered, or blessings poured?

More than knowing, is our growing,
Not understanding, but undertaking,
More than defining, are we applying?
Not just saying, do keep obeying.

“Keep your heart, with all diligence;
For out of it, spring;
The issues of life”;
Search your heart, to God bring!

O how selfish, and sinful
We keep God’s Word within
Are not praying and sharing
With our world, so full of sin.

So, listen with faith
Trusting God cannot fail
For in wisdom and love
He will always prevail.

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

So we’re self-willed, self-reliant
Self-righteous, we blindly stray
Are defiant, independent
We want the last say.

He shall be like a tree
Planted by rivers of water
Brings forth fruit, in its season
Whose leaf shall not wither.

Let my heart be blameless
Regarding Your statutes
That I may not be ashamed
Live a life with sound roots.
