Be filled with His Spirit Archives - Page 18 of 20

Blessed or Barren?

Are you blessed in your life
Or still staying barren
So long to bear fruit
But it just doesn’t happen.

Not to wallow in self
But instead, be God’s letter
A testimony of grace
Grow not bitter, but better.

May we learn, to thank God
Worship Him, despite all
Fierce adversity, or blessings
Before God, humbly fall.

Yes, only when emptied
And dead to our self
The Holy Spirit, can fill us
Bring new life, and breath.

Instead count your blessings
Turn daily to God
Be grateful and thankful
For all you have got.

God tells us, be filled
With His Spirit, within
But except we repent
Lies a barrier, of sin.

Seems feelings, change often
Are not easily controlled
So we seek, passing pleasures
Hope our feelings, are consoled.

Be daily inspired
By God’s Holy Word
Pray the Spirit of God
Cause your heart, to be stirred.

Jesus calls us to go
Bold, as His disciples
But we’ve always excuses
Allow ‘self’, easily stifle.

For all trusting Him wholly
Find Him, wholly true
While those trusting self
Remain anxious, feel blue.
