For What Are You Grasping?
For what are you grasping
And groping in life
Is it riches and comfort
Success, without strife?
Our Gifts & Talents
Thro’ His Spirit, God gives
In His people, are sown
Differing talents and gifts
That His glory, be known.
Our Duty or Choice?
Do learn, sit and listen
To hear the Lord’s voice
Seek His face, and presence
‘Tis our duty, not a choice.
Our Culture, or His Cross?
Will we live then for ‘self’
And our feelings that fail?
Or follow our God
Know, His truths will prevail.
Which Choice?
Yes, do follow God’s Word
Pray for His wisdom, in all
Call upon Him, to lead us
He surely answers our call.
Lessons from Jacob
When God makes a promise
It never can fail
Tho’ the vessels He uses
Seem often, so frail.
Jars of Clay
We’re just, jars of clay
Mere, earthen vessels
Yet we choose, how to fill
Be unique, and special.
Is ‘Self’ Your Goal?
Know God, our Creator
Remember, He is Lord
Created us, for His kingdom
In Christ, we’re restored.
If We will but Heed
But should we rebel
Turn from God’s Word
Disobey His commands
We surely are cursed.
How Do You Respond?
You can end up as bitter
Even doubt God is there
…Or choose to trust Him
That God knows, and He cares.
