Seek first God's kingdom Archives - Page 2 of 2

So Near…So Far (The Inner…or Outer)

The soldiers were gambling
For Jesus’ garments to win
Concerned with the outer
So blind to their sin.

you hungry and thirsty
To draw nearer, to God’s Presence
Know more of His love
And taste more, of His essence?

Since neither hot, nor cold
He would vomit them out
While they claimed to be rich
Needing naught, not without.

Know the fear of the LORD
Is the beginning of wisdom
So, if we would be wise
Will seek first God’s kingdom.

Yesterday’s gone
And tomorrow’s unknown
We have, just today
To invest, wisely own.

To be healthy and wealthy
They claim, ‘tis our right
But no scriptures support this
‘Tis mistaken insight.

Remember our lives
Are played on a stage
That God has designed
With plans for each age.
