If the eye is lit,
by the Truth and Light
it will be given . . .
a new spiritual sight.
For the eye reflects,
what’s on the inside
and will mirror Jesus
to all on the outside.
If the eye is enlighten,
to the Life and Way
to the ways of the world
it will not again sway.
For the eye can see,
the cover of darkness . . .
in a world enshrouded
by evil’s blackness.
If the eye is the lamp,
it will shine ever bright
for its body is full . . .
of the One who brings Light!
~~~~~~~~
Matthew 6:22
The light of the body is the eye:
if therefore thine eye be single,
thy whole body shall be full of light.

Labor pains,
in grace growing
the more of Jesus
we keep knowing.
Working out,
our own salvation
in Christ alone
for justification.
Under the law,
we are no more
once we’ve opened
to Jesus the door.
Becoming like Him,
being born anew
so Jesus’ image
God can work in you.
Labor pains,
well worth the affliction
when compared to . . .
Jesus’ own crucifixion!

Galatians 4:19
My little children, of whom
I travail in birth again until
Christ be formed in you,

I am a work in progress,
you probably are one too
each day Jesus is working
in us something new.
His grace is forming us to be,
His warriors and His saints
He’s shaping us to live a life
with principles and restraints.
He is molding our hearts,
to be sober and clean
so the likeness of Him
in our souls we can glean.
He knows all the lumps,
that need to be reformed
He is shaping us each day
till in Him we’re transformed.
We have unlimited potential,
He’ll never be finished with us
and you and I must believe
His remolding is always just.
I am a work in progress,
you too might be one . . .
every day God is shaping us
into the image of His Son!

I’m a work in progress,
you likely are one too . . .
each day Jesus is working
in us something new.
His grace is transforming us,
to be sin fighting saints
He’s shaping us to live a life
with principles and restraints.
He is molding our minds,
to be clean and spotless
He shaping our hearts
to live pure and flawless.
He knows all the lumps,
that need to be reformed
He’s modeling our lives
till in Him we’re transformed.
We have unlimited potential,
He’ll never be finished with us
but, you and I must believe
His remolding is always just.
I’m a work in progress,
you likely too are one . . .
each day God is shaping us
into the image of His Son!
