A Doubting Spirit ~

A doubting spirit,
will get you no where
a wavering one
will only add to your care

A steadfast soul,
will only make you strong
a believing one
will never steer you wrong.

A leery heart,
will only get in God’s way
a wary one
will cause faith to decay.

A skeptical mind,
will befuddle and confuse
a distrustful one
will perplex and bemuse.

A vacillating soul,
makes a wavering trust
a loyal one
knows God is always just!

~~~~~~~~

1 Corinthians 15:58

Therefore, my beloved brethren,
be ye stedfast, unmoveable,
always abounding in the work
of the Lord, forasmuch as ye
know that your labour is not
in vain in the Lord.

2021 A Year of Contentment ~

This year I’m going to be,
peacefully content . . .
no matter what happens
I’m not going to lament.

Instead I will be,
hopefully satisfied
so my faith in Jesus
can be magnified.

This year I’m going to be,
faithfully trusting . . .
for nothing on this earth
leaves me wanting.

Rather I will be,
firmly unwavering
as the world around me
continues unraveling.

This year I am going to br,
joyfully content . . .
regardless of the turmoil
or to what its extent!

1 John 2:15-18

Love not the world,
neither the things
that are in the world.
If any man love the world,
the love of the Father is not in him.

For all that is in the world,
the lust of the flesh, and
the lust of the eyes, and the
pride of life, is not of the
Father, but is of the world.

And the world passeth away,
and the lust thereof: but he
that doeth the will of God
abideth for ever.

Little children, it is the last time:
and as ye have heard that antichrist
shall come, even now are there many
antichrists; whereby we know that
it is the last time.

Staying On Course ~

May each day,
we apply God’s grace
to keep us steadfast
in the daily race.

May each day,
God’s mercy we find
to fill our hearts
with peace of mind.

May each day,
our faith keep us
on the course
of hope and trust.

May each day,
we seek God first
to feed our hunger
to quench our thirst.

May each day,
we keep our eyes
looking forward to
the winner’s prize!
