Lessons from Jacob

When God makes a promise
It never can fail
Tho’ the vessels He uses
Seem often, so frail.

We’re just, jars of clay
Mere, earthen vessels
Yet we choose, how to fill
Be unique, and special.

But should we rebel
Turn from God’s Word
Disobey His commands
We surely are cursed.

You can end up as bitter
Even doubt God is there
…Or choose to trust Him
That God knows, and He cares.

The flames may have died
Fierce passions, ran dry
Many churches, dwindling
Are now asking why?

But God waits for our choices
His love, forces not
Forewarns us, of outcomes
Yet we choose our lot.

I press toward the goal, yes, for the prize. The upward call of God in Jesus Christ.

Yes, our carton gets filled
For we all choose contents
Either God’s will and truths
Or man’s changing concepts.

So few, stop to weigh
Consider wherein
Their values and faith
And worldview within.

Everything worthy
Comes at great price
And our life is a quandary
Till yielded to Christ.
