Forgiving Others

if we forgive others
For their trespasses against us
Our Father forgives us
Will cleanse us, thro’ Jesus.

Forgiveness

Forgiveness depends
Not on the offender
They may have done wrong
Jesus tells us, be a forgiver.

Forgiveness or Feelings

While Jesus, showed love
Forgiveness, not hate
Building bridges, not walls
To unite, not separate.

Do We See Jesus?

Perfected through suffering
Captain of our salvation
Saved many thro’ affliction
Bought our sanctification.

Cleaning House…with Jacob

With death to your old life
In Christ, be made new
Once a Jacob, now an Israel
Ask His Spirit, change you.

Church Ritual or Christ?

Each pew and each person
Tells a story, their life
For some, true commitment
For others, a mere rite.

Brokenness to Blessing

But God often uses
The fires, great strife
Finally gets our attention
To teach lessons of life.

Counted Worthy to Suffer

And we trust not in self
Despair even of life
But ’tis God, who will raise us
Out of suffering, and strife.

A Man of Sorrows

Though we live, amidst battles
We’ve daily victory, with Jesus
Yes, we too, may face sorrows
But rejoice, He ever meets us.

A Deep Fear of God

A deep fear of God
Demands reverence, within
Do recall, but for Jesus
We are lost, in our sin.
