Burdened, Bondage or Free?
Be willing, to die daily
See self-crucified
As a child of the King
In Christ, all supplied.
Out of Control?
Not by our own efforts
Our flesh, cannot conquer
We need Jesus’ power
Without Him, we falter.
Self-Control
And as a branch, in His vine
Jesus tells us, keep abiding
To bear fruit, of God’s Spirit
His ‘Self-control’, He is providing.
Sexual Immorality
As the High Priest, wore a plate
“Holiness to the LORD”, engraved
Let us daily, give God glory
Live in holiness, be not depraved.
Set Free
My body, His temple
For worship and praise
Released from my prison
To new life, am raised.
Walk in the Spirit or Flesh?
For if ignoring, or ignorant
Of God’s truth and reality
We’re poorly armed in the fight
Against temptation, so face calamity.
Overcome Works of the Flesh
We daily crucify our flesh
As we abide, in Christ Jesus
Resolve to live, but by God’s Word
Assured God’s Spirit, is ever with us!
Our Personal Baggage
For parents aren’t perfect
They come with their baggage
May kids grow, self-examine
To avoid long-term damage.
Shame-Blame Cycle
But, if we’ve a low esteem
Always carrying, chronic shame
Subconsciously, ever struggling
Feeling guilt, so casting blame.
Shame, Disclaim, Blame
When failing, we do wrong
Try to bury, in shame
Then, blame on another
While lies excuses, we proclaim.
