Lam. 3-5 (Sadness)

Of course it can be seen.

The world has always been.

Rebellious in its ways.

Ignoring what God says.

Receiving the punishment.

No longer has Gods nourishment.

Or do what we were told.

What disaster to behold.

Mth. 20:1-16

When we are blessed.

With what God assessed.

Then we complain.

We worked hard in vain.

Have forgotten he gave.

So all people he could save.

For what he gave you.

Had nothing to do.

With how long you worked.

Or how long you shirked.

Ps. 119:129-136

How good it is to read.

God’s word meets every need.

As long as l obey.

Everything it does say.

For good or for strife.

Gal. 4-6 (Freedom in Christ)

For freedom Christ set us free.

Don’t let the law entangle me.

So that my spirit does moan.

For it is just by faith alone

On earth I can now show love

And for God in heaven above.

For I am a new creation.

With victory in every situation.

Mth. 19:1-14

Here again we see.

How to be completely free.

Not everyone can.

Only if in Gods plan.

For we were created to be.

One loving family.

But God sometimes will say.

You must go another way.

If children of heavenly Father.

You would much rather.

Like a child to be free.

To sit on Christ’s knee.

Ps. 119:113 -120

Double minded are feeble.

Become evil doing people.

Though appear to follow law.

The love of God ignore.

When I read God’s word.

To think any other is absurd.

The Lord’s name is a fortified tower

Humility comes before great power

Sunday 27 Aug. (New beginning)

Gen. 6:9-8:4 Noah’s flood.

God came to destroy.

Things that him did annoy.

So there could be rebirth.

To build a total new earth.

To leave old behind.

No longer so blind.

To the fact he is here.

No longer to fear.

What man does do.

As I work with you.

Mth 24:37-51

When world is a disaster.

Forgotten who’s master.

God will then show up.

Says come and now sup.

For I have seen that you.

Are faithful and true.

Gal. 1-3. (Paul’s walk.)

Law casts much doubt.

Faith is what it’s about.

Not on how I behave.

But on promise God gave.

For I know where I have been.

Gods salvation l have seen.

Was in such a desert place.

Where l had to face.

The sadness of my soul.

God then made me whole.

To preach to the lost.

No matter what the cost.

The religious could now see.

Gods power at work in me.

Mth. 18:21-25. (unforgiving servant)

In Gods benevolence I believe.

Yet when I refuse to forgive.

Those who amongst l live.

What has made me free.

Is taken back from me.

Ps. 119:105-112 (the bible)

They word a lamp to my feet.

Your law allows me to keep.

On the narrow path.

With the word as my staff.

God’s word then makes me glad.

Prov. 18:9 (laziness)

Don’t slack in Gods work

From truth do not shirk.

July. 15

Judg. 19:16-21:25

Here we see sin again.

When evil causes shame.

Must root it out.

There is no doubt.

From assembly of our God.

Though infighting may seem odd.

So whatever does annoy.

We’re determined to destroy.

So perpetrators fall.

But not quite all.

Even though they’re to blame.

So they can grow again.

Mth. 18:10-20

Judg. 16-19

See what happens when.

Led by strong self serving men.

Who go their own way.

Leading to a disastrous day

Doing their own thing.

Instead of Christ being their king.

Mth. 18:1-9

How can you tell.

When you are doing well.

When attitude is as a child.

Lowly meek and mild.

Then if in position to lead.

And cause others to bleed.

God will condemn.

Disaster for you then.

I doesn’t cease to amaze.

How he is with us these days.

When we have fallen away.

Comes rescues so we’re okay.

Even through a Sampson.

God appointed as the one.

Though everyone thought.

He could so easily be bought.

God then used an offence.

So couldn’t sit on the fence.

In a fit of enmity.

Confronted the enemy.

Seemed so contradictory.

Yet he led to victory.

Mth. 17:14-27

When we appeal.

Why can we not heal?

Lord says you must ask.

I am up to the task.

It is impossible to receive.

Even when told sad news.

When think it’s not your dues.

And others do decry.

God always does supply.

Ps. 119:81-88

When refuse what you say.

Then one man will rise.

Who through God will surprise.

Come follow me today.

This is the Lords way.

To take away your pain.

To have victory again.

Mth. 17:1-13

What an amazing sight.

Fills us with such delight.

I could have victory on this day.

But Lord wanted to show me.

He alone would defeat the enemy.

In secret get down and listen.

It will confirm your vision.

How to overcome in the fight.

In friends and the enemies sight.

But then see once again.

The effects of sins stain.

Causes even more disruption.

Death and destruction.

Mth. 16:13-28
