Grow better not bitter Archives - A Doctor's Cure for the Soul

A Victim, a Victor or Vector?

So depending, not on others
Their affirmation and praise
And no matter our lot
Be a God-Vector, always.

“The LORD gave, the LORD has taken
Blessed be the name, of the LORD”
“The LORD gave, the LORD has taken
Blessed be the name, of the LORD”

And so, no matter our lot
Walk by faith, and not sight
Cling to God’s Word, His grace
Midst our darkness, His light.

Yes, do count it all joy
In the midst of your trials
God is working, to produce
Active endurance, as He disciples.

God uses all ways
To turn up the heat
To soften our hearts
Our hardness, defeat.

When we’re failing and falling
And we’re hitting, rock bottom
We can stand, on Christ Jesus
Our sure Rock, and still blossom.

Be ever ready for His coming
Though we know not the hour
But be His faithful, wise steward
Await His blessings, to shower.

Once we’re strong in the Lord
And the power of His might
In the armor of God
Each temptation takes flight.

Not to dwell, on sin and failure
Rather focus, on the LORD
See beyond, my upset feelings
Trusting God, see blessings poured.

So, live not for this world
That will soon pass away
But, for our calling, eternal
To trust God, and obey.
