Follow faith not feelings Archives - Page 3 of 5

God Allows What He Hates

God allows what He hates
To achieve what He loves
He permits man to sink
That men seek Him above.

Are we pouting, or praising
Is our attitude, right?
Are we thankless or thankful
When we’re out of sight?

Man is driven by sin
So focused, enticed
Instead, see God’s perspective
Stay centered, on Christ.

Then, instead of the darkness
We rather, shine bright
In place of the evil
Share His truth and light.

Our motives so matter
To take, or to give
Self-serving, or God’s glory
For what do we live?

So, restoring relationships
In place of cancellation
No longer angry, resentful
God’s loving, transformation.

And who doesn’t strive
To achieve in our flesh
Instead, learn to wrestle
With God, till we’re blessed.

Yes, keep waiting on God
The LORD only, our choice
Persevere and be faithful
‘Til we hear His voice.

God is pleased by our faith
As we trust, and obey
So, fear not, stay faithful
Follow His will and way.

May our wants and our will
Be in line, with the Lord
Lest our hearts become hard
And resentments, are stored.
