Softening Hard Hearts

So just as we, were so forgiven;
Receive forgiveness, a new heart;
Release resentments, all our hatred;
We must forgive, a brand new start.

Turn your fears, into faith;
Your adversity, to adventure;
Claim God’s promises, believe;
Jesus’ victory, on your venture.

But many sadly, stay hard-hearted;
Wanting only, their will and way;
So they reject, keep refusing;
As they rebel, and disobey.

A heart in God’s people;
To be discipled, and go;
To make disciples, multiplying;
That all peoples may know.

So depending, not on others
Their affirmation and praise
And no matter our lot
Be a God-Vector, always.

And yet our hope is not in weapons
The arm of flesh, will fail
Pray Israel trust in the LORD
Know her Messiah, wholly prevail.

Yet, our God uses foes
In revealing His plan
That Israel, be saved
Despite the evil of man.

So, life is not random ‘luck’
God knows our will and ways
Sees our heart’s intent
God decides our lot, always.

Like Israel of old
We’re to purge our lives
Drive out, all our foes
Know God’s blessings, and thrive.

So our heart, we must examine
Must guard, keep sealed
To be healthy, not hardened
Circumcised, not diseased.
