Faith not feelings Archives - A Doctor's Cure for the Soul

Escape Temptations

For when tempted, God provides
A way out, an escape
That we’re able, to endure
So let us learn, avoid mistakes.

But in place of God’s lordship
Satan swiftly deceived
Appealed to their senses
Denied truths, God revealed.

Stay far from temptations
Not seeking our pleasure
Instead, cleaving closer
To Christ, our true treasure.

So do pray, that our hearts
Remain steadfast, unmoved
Walk by faith, not feelings
In Christ, wholly approved.

So, if caught in a valley
Set your mind on Him
Stay faithful, and follow
Ask He fill you within.

Are you dealing with feelings
The ups and downs?
Our emotions, so powerful
To which we seem bound.

Seems feelings, change often
Are not easily controlled
So we seek, passing pleasures
Hope our feelings, are consoled.
