Love not the World

Are we carnal and fleshly
Walk by faith, or by sight?
By our lusts, sensual desires
Live by instincts, appetites?

Teach us to number our days

We are given each day
For God’s glory, not mine
To obey and to please Him
For His purpose divine.

No Complaining – Always Give Thanks

So do rejoice, evermore
And pray without ceasing
In everything, give thanks
This is God’s will, unceasing.

Let Go, and Let God

“Not by might, nor by power
But by My Spirit” says the LORD
So that His will, be done
We then see, blessings poured.

Great Faith, God is Able

Fully trusting God’s promises
With obedience to His word
Being steadfastness in prayer
By circumstances, undeterred.

Victorious Suffering

Set our mind, on things above
Tho’ still suffering, not healed
Be not focused, on our feelings
Walk by faith, in our ordeal.

Chronic Suffering and Pain

So, while we may not be healed
Nor from suffering, delivered
But instead of dejection
We can rejoice, not be embittered.

Attitudes and Habits

So, choose forgiveness and love
For God’s truth, sets us free
From old attitudes, reactions
Call on Jesus, to Him flee.

What Does God Expect of Me?

Be teachable, be open
As clay in God’s hand
Humble, repentant
Obey, all He commands.

Our Stepping Stone, Our Rock

As our LORD, and our King
May we never bring shame
As His child, bring but honor
Daily glorify, His Name.
