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.
Facing Disasters

“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”
Closed Doors

When a door slams shut
There is rarely a ‘why’
God suddenly closes
‘Oft a puzzling surprise.
Adversity? – God means it for good

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

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

We daily crucify our flesh
As we abide, in Christ Jesus
Resolve to live, but by God’s Word
Assured God’s Spirit, is ever with us!
“Be strong and of good courage”

And Modern Israel again
Of these words, must take heed
Yet likewise, on our journey
We too also, have need.
God’s Pressure Cooker

God uses all ways
To turn up the heat
To soften our hearts
Our hardness, defeat.
Failing, Falling or Faith?

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

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