Redemption & restoration Archives - A Doctor's Cure for the Soul

RELATIONSHIPS

Cease expectations from the other
That we long, they will provide
Our deeper needs, seek from God
So, bear His fruit, in Him abide.

So may our hearts, love God and people
God, daily search me, know my heart
Reveal all barriers, or wicked ways
Cleanse, transform me, a new start.

Start a fire, LORD we ask
And burn up the dross
Great repentance and turning
Before yet more, are lost.

We no longer, are broken
God’s Spirit, now within
Restoring, transforming
And freeing from sin.

So coming daily, in repentance
Wash me whiter than snow
The blood of Jesus, still cleanses
God’s forgiveness, ever flows.

Instead, Jesus commands us
To love, even our foe
So live not, based on feelings
Obey Jesus, and grow.

So, each offence forgive
Repent, be reconciled
Be freed from those burdens
Pray God’s love, be recognized.

Yet our forgiveness, depends not
If hurt and pain, if we’re grieved
Nor our feelings, their responses
If apologies, are received.

God has called us to love
With all of our heart
When offenders, then hurt us
To forgive, on our part.

Since we all get offended
And respond to each other
To forgive or avenge?
God’s love, or we suffer?
