To Grow our Faith
Since nothing, is too hard
For our great God, to fulfill
Trusting fully in God
Keep obeying His will.
There Nothing Fades
Yes, our new heavenly home
All so perfect, and pure
Our eternal abode
And forever secure.
The Fig Tree
Not our knowledge, our ‘leaves’
Our sin, we can’t cover
For God sees our hearts
Any sweet fruit, to discover?
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.
The Blessings of Surrender (Becoming ‘Good Soil’)
Yes, receive of God’s blessing
First surrender each part
Not the best of our flesh
First, our will and our heart.
That Innermost Place
Do you seek to withdraw
To that innermost place?
There, we step aside
Meet the God of all grace.
That He May Increase
May the LORD increase
In my life, day by day
And may I decrease
I earnestly pray.
Temptation
And while God offers good
Temptation brings evil
Understanding our choice
Be His righteous people.
Taught by Trials
Therefore, welcome your trials
Your waiting, and suffering
Since God is perfecting
Become His fragrant offering.
