Set our mind on God's kingdom Archives - Page 4 of 6

The Cup, the Cross, the Crown

So, do drink your cup
Trust God, and obey
He is with you, midst sufferings
Know He’s present, always.

For the God who solved sin
Thro’ sending His Son
Can certainly solve
His children’s problems.

So, we likewise must repent
Of rebelling, and sleeping
We should rather, seek God
Not self-serving, but reaping.

As a soul, with a body
Ignore not your spirit
Jesus offers new life
Will you ask Him, come fill it?

And here, Jesus reminds
It’s not what we say
Our words can be empty
It is whether, we obey.

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.

And so, love not the world
Nor selfishness, greed
Seek God’s glory alone
Let His Spirit, always lead.

If you are willing, obedient
The good you shall eat
But if you refuse and rebel
…. be devoured, by defeat.
