Be the Fragrance of Christ

Recognizing we are created
To always bring God, His glory
To uplift, and choose His will
To live for Him, life’s not my story.
Not an Option

With three billion, unaware
Of Jesus’ Name, to our shame
Let us pray, give and go
’tis our duty, and aim.
Why Are We Here?

We are here for God’s business
His purpose, not our own
Bringing Him glory
Go make disciples, seeds sown.
Be a Finisher…Gideon’s Downfall

But then sadly, he succumbed
Asked for earrings, from his plunder
Israel gave him much gold
He made an ephod, an evil blunder.
Seeking Approval

So instead, of self-approval
Or seek approval, of others
Know, we’re created for God
For His approval, not another.
Take Responsibility for Our Failures

Learn from Adam, our wrongs
We must own, and not hide
Nor blame others, but confess
And repent…. in Christ abide.
Your Goal

Your life you can build
On His Word and His will
His pleasure and purpose
You are finally fulfilled.
Only Two Paths

So, choose to walk God’s way
His good paths, of righteousness
By faith we follow Jesus
Cleansed of, all unrighteousness.
Just Existing, or Purpose-Living?

To surrender and yield
As His possession, daily walking
Not existing, but fulfilling
God’s purposes and calling.
A little OCD?

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