Dealing with difficulties Archives - A Doctor's Cure for the Soul

Love not the World

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

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

With each worldview different answers,
Made in God’s image, Judeo-Christian.
With only Jesus addressing evil,
Conquered sin, restores and listens.

Who am I, my meaning?
Just why am I here?
My purpose, my mission?
Few have ears to hear.

Set free, from compulsion
He restores our behavior
Our minds are renewed
What a wonderful Savior.

Yes, if we yield to God
Needed grace, He’ll impart.
He can change our perspective
To transform our cold heart.

As you journey life’s road
And you look up ahead
Do your seek God’s guidance
Or just cruise by, instead?

Let my cry come
Before You, O LORD
Give me understanding
According to Your Word.

For I rejoice at Your word
As one finding, great treasure.
I hate, and abhor lying
But love Your law, my greatest pleasure.

LORD, look and consider
My affliction, and deliver me
For I do not forget
Your law, set me free.
