Jars of Clay

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

Know God, our Creator
Remember, He is Lord
Created us, for His kingdom
In Christ, we’re restored.

Good Shepherd, do guide me
To make, heavenly choices
Yes, hearing Your will
Amongst many voices.

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.

Facing the future
Uncertainty, for sure
Yet God, is all knowing
In Him, fully secure.

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

No compromised commitment
And no looking back
Surely God, deserves all
Christ is worthy….we never lack!

So, choose rather to suffer
Affliction, with God’s people
Than passing pleasures of sin
Be with Christ, and not evil.

Seems feelings, change often
Are not easily controlled
So we seek, passing pleasures
Hope our feelings, are consoled.
