A Circumcised Heart

A new creature in Christ
The old, has passed away
A circumcision, without hands
Jesus opened, a new way.

Despite her failures, abuses
Rejection of their Messiah
Our God watches, over Israel
They will know Him, states Zachariah.

Be repentant, not rebellious
Obedient, His Spirit-filled
Submitted, not stubborn
Seek God, not self-willed.

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

Yet, He bids us to follow
We must take up, our cross
Abide in Him daily
Count all things as loss.

So, study the Scriptures
Of men’s motives and methods
For what the LORD seeks
To be used, as His vessel.

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

Consecrated, sanctified
Drawing nigh, to God’s altar
Yet seems, we come flippant
Should our approach, alter?

O Hallelujah, thro’ Messiah
All our sins washed away
With Him died, and we rise
His special treasure, every day.

Yes, God had His reasons
Every symbol He used
Point to Jesus, Messiah
And His offering, approved.
