‘Self’…My Old Nature
So now repentant, trusting Him
Born anew, from above
We are now, His own possession
Redeemed, by Jesus’ love.
A Circumcised Heart
A new creature in Christ
The old, has passed away
A circumcision, without hands
Jesus opened, a new way.
Are You Needing to Change?
Daily follow and abide
Lift to Him, every thought
As I feed on Your Word
Obey all I am taught.
Keys to Prayer
Our High Priest, the LORD Jesus
Who taught us to pray
By His Spirit, in our weakness
Intercedes, leads the way.
Trust God, in All
So, trust Him in all
Seek God, through His Word
Delight in His presence
Obey daily what’s heard.
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.
The Cost of Salvation
Yet, He bids us to follow
We must take up, our cross
Abide in Him daily
Count all things as loss.
Our New True Self
As you look in the mirror
Who do you see
A child of the King
Or, the old fallen ‘me’?
No Longer I, but Christ
No longer to struggle
In life’s battles, then lose
A new creature in Christ
For His glory, to use.
Inadequate?
So, am focused no longer
On my feelings and flaws
But His grace, for each need
Trust Him, to open doors.
