Rejection-as His Child

So keep recalling, you’re His child;
Keep setting, your mind above;
Keep walking by faith, not sight;
Naught separates us, from Christ’s love.

So build bridges, not barriers;
Choose to love, not to resent;
Walk in love, don’t be aggrieved;
Instead, God’s joy and peace present.

While our God, our Creator;
Has spoken, have we heard?
Sent the Savior, to redeem us;
Guide our ‘Free will’ to His Word.

Be not shaken, when offended;
By God’s grace, we’re so secure;
Recognizing, all are sinners;
So we forgive, thro’ Christ endure.

And so do choose, to be forgiving;
To let go, of negative feelings;
Be replaced by God’s grace;
Let His love, bring in us healing.

So, are we acting out of love?
Or busy judging, criticizing;
Fault-finding, others’ failures;
Is our motive, their sanctifying?

As we abide in Christ Jesus;
Naught separates us, from God’s love;
For in Christ Jesus, we are sealed;
With God’s Spirit, from above.

Therefore, child of the King;
Do repent, each hidden sin;
Obey, rid of all bitterness;
Seek His love, filled within.

For He takes, the useless;
What others deplore;
In His Hand, always hope;
From these, brings so much more.

But we’re to “love one another”;
Tis not an option, He commands us;
“Just as I have loved you”;
So do obey, Jesus demands us.
