John 6:41-69. Ruth 1:3-18

Things seem so low.

Told should not go.

Join together, as last resort

It’s when we, can be taught

Now to reach our goal.

To fully satisfy, our soul.

In Christ I will abide.

Always there by my side.

But I just don’t know.

Should I stay or should l go?

It’s then he does confide.

Remember I’m on your side.

Whatever road you undertake.

I’m with you for goodness sake

Even to a foreign land.

To hold another’s hand.

Nothing like it was before.

Your fortunes l will restore.

I already do surely know.

I have nowhere else to go.

Jere. 51-52

Though now downtrodden.

By the new and the modern.

See destruction come.

Because of what they have done.

But still heard Lord say.

We will be carted away.

To a foreign land.

At Lords command.

Look so very feeble.

As the Lords people.

Even while we are there.

Do see the Lords care.

He one day will destroy.

Those he did employ.

To reprimand me.

So I could return free.

Mth. 7:1-14

The judgement you claim.

When you do the same.

Or when feeling wise.

Others still despise.

Ask and it will be given.

To place that you live in.

Enter through narrow gate.

To confirm your own fate.

Ps. 137

While in captivity.

They still want to see me.

But how can I.

So sad want to die.

One day you will repay.

For what they do say.

Prov. 15:15-17

Better a little

Than to be brittle.

Jere. 49-50

Earthly kingdoms that surround.

Those fugitives who cry out.

Will be left in no doubt.

That the Lord will rescue when.

The right time is for them.

Mth. 6:19-34

Treasures stored on earth.

In hope do not give birth.

Will never satisfy.

Rush and always in a hurry.

It’s the Lord that will please.

Be confident and be at ease.

Nations that were strong.

Have all gone wrong.

Lord will now deploy.

Enemy to destroy.

Britain and America.

Strength that has been.

No longer will be seen.

Those who stand strong.

To the Lord do belong.

Mth. 6:9-18

Father your kingdom come.

Your will on earth be done.

Give today what l need.

Forgiveness in life l lead.

That my heart within.

For even as I forgive.

God forgives me in life l live.

And when l seek Lord and fast.

Put on a celebratory mask.

For only Lord need see.

The inner desires within me.

Ps. 110.

The Lord will have his way.

As strong are seen to die.

Gods people lifted high

Prov. 15:8-9

The Lord detests wickedness.

Loves who seek righteousness.

July 1

Jere. 41-44. Doubt

When people come to kill.

Evil intentions to fulfil.

All will then complain.

Yet they refuse to obey.

When told be still and stay.

The Lord says do not go.

Though you will say no.

For we know where.

Are safe will have no fear.

Though you say we must.

In Lord alone you should trust.

Again you say we won’t

Destruction if you don’t.

Mth. 5:38-6:8

Those who cause you harm.

The best way to disarm.

Is to give and not to take.

Help them, for Gods sake.

So they have no doubt.

Honour God in what you do.

Same goes for your prayer.

Only God needs to hear.

When call out to him.

Praises above the din.

Ps. 102:18-28

Tell what you feel God has told.

Yet there will be opposition.

Say you are in no position.

To tell us what to believe.

Angrily say you deceive.

You have not got our permission.

We will throw you into prison.

Then God will rescue you.

In spite of what they do.

Then the mighty and the small.

Come to see their own downfall.

Mth 5:21-37

It may seem too hardline.

To speak the truth on you mind.

Is to help those who are leaning.

Towards the deceivers way.

Ignoring what the Lord does say.

To the enemy surrounding.

For it is the Lords way.

To that restoration day.

You will be fine.

In righteous one to shine.

Forever to stand.

In God given land.

Amazing God we serve.

In love and in foresight.

Fathers might outpours.

As he again restores.

Weeping as we come.

Knowing what we have done.

What rejoicing will be heard.

Despite’s sadness that occurred.

But still there is hope.

To get off this slippery slope.

Ashamed humiliated again.

Yet now l can proclaim.

Because l have believed.

The Fathers love I received

Not because of who l am.

It is God’s sacrificial lamb.

A new covenant is now here.

Where it is all so clear.

That I’m Gods special child.

No longer by the world reviled.

What seemed to me improbable.

To others utterly impossible.

The Lord revealed to me.

What could happen possibly.

So in faith l now see.

God has set me free.

Despite disaster all around.

In the storm not run aground.

Mth. 4:12-25

The kingdom of God is near.
