Follow faith not feelings Archives - Page 5 of 6

Duped by Distractions?

Are you caught up with ‘life’
Desires of the flesh
Deceived by the devil
Let this world enmesh?

Do learn to forgive
So you can forsake
Lest you carry hurts
Resentments, heartache.

In exchange for your sin
He will give you, His Spirit
Be discontented, no longer
Yield your life, He will fill it.

Feeling your failing
Seems God, is not answering
Frustrated by failure
Confusion and cancelling.

Deeper, yet deeper
Drawn deeper still more
Am so devoted, desirous
Of Your presence, O Lord.

Before God, none condemns us
Nor separates, from His love
O, hallelujah His salvation
Ever sealed, from above.

Are you dealing with feelings
The ups and downs?
Our emotions, so powerful
To which we seem bound.

Yet contentment is found
In Christ, our true rest
Satisfied, despite trials
Knowing God, seeks our best.

God gives, each a carton
Our life journey begins
A body without
Soul and spirit within.

Set free from all bondage
From rituals, religion
Customs, convention
Worldliness, and tradition.
