My Hope and My Helper

Am not conformed, to this world,
But transformed, my mind renewing,
May prove, what’s good, acceptable,
The perfect will of God, keep choosing.
From Seasons of Suffering

Instead, we offer up our bodies,
A living sacrifice, upon His altar,
So be the fragrance of Christ,
Amidst your suffering, do not falter.
Desert Days …God is with You!

Just as Israel, in the wilderness;
As Jesus, in the desert;
Know our God, will supply;
For every need, He is present
Enter His Rest

Have you entered God’s presence;
Of quiet rest, and peace;
To abide in Christ Jesus;
From ‘self’, be released?
Suffering and God’s Sovereignty

Yes, God promises us His grace;
Sufficient, for our hour;
His strength, is made perfect;
In our weakness, His power.
Don’t Succumb!

So listen not, to your feelings;
No dark thoughts, in your mind;
Set your heart, and call on Jesus;
Claim His Word, in prayer remind.
Severe Suffering

And so in spite, of dark days
Facing God’s ways, not understood
Amidst adversity, we would not choose
Keep trusting God, all for our good.
But Wait on the LORD

Shall mount up, like eagles
Shall run, and not grow weary
They shall walk, and not faint
Know God, is ever with me.
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.
