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.

Love not the World

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

Be Filled, with Christ’s Love

Such love, that passes knowledge
With which, you may be filled
With all the fullness of God
Through His Spirit, be fulfilled.

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.

Calvinism, Arminianism or Both?

Know God’s Word, teaches both
God’s sovereignty, His will
But also, our heart’s free choice
To stay hardened, or Spirit filled.

In the Grip of God’s Love

Grip my heart, with Your Truth
I am loved, beyond measure
Despite all my failures
In Christ, I’m You’re treasure.

Where There is No Vision

So, live not for this world
That will soon pass away
But, for our calling, eternal
To trust God, and obey.

Start Dying, Begin Living

Cry out for forgiveness
Accept Jesus’ gift
Exchange our rebellion
His death, bridged the rift.
