Forgive others Archives - A Doctor's Cure for the Soul

Our Personal Baggage

For parents aren’t perfect
They come with their baggage
May kids grow, self-examine
To avoid long-term damage.

But, if we’ve a low esteem
Always carrying, chronic shame
Subconsciously, ever struggling
Feeling guilt, so casting blame.

When failing, we do wrong
Try to bury, in shame
Then, blame on another
While lies excuses, we proclaim.

So stay daily, in communion
In God’s Word, in His Presence
Walk in His Spirit, and draw near
Keep abiding, in God’s essence.

That instead, of selfish pleasures
Intercede, for more salvations
The Lord Jesus, returns soon
We must pray for all nations.

For You call me to partner
In Your image I’m made
To pray without ceasing
And see lives, remade.

Do teach us to pray
To wrestle in prayer
With compassion, conviction
Certain our God, does care.

Yes, God will reply
As we lift holy hands
Be persistent, prevailing
Await on God’s plans.

We have but to heart-cry
Even if not speaking
The LORD surely hears
All that you are seeking.

And come ask in faith
Not doubting reluctant
Plead but for God’s will
Persist boldly, exultant.
