Despite frustrations' angst
deliberately asserting human nature flaws
condemning me to languish in failure
my soul seeks the Saviour for His offered help
so by His grace, I can start serenely anew...
Now encouraged* to live joyously as His redeemed child
I claim victory with the power of His imputed righteousness.
Overcoming woes of downfalls
while missing excellent marks of success
I trust the supreme Creator for His pardon
to sanctify me from confessed iniquities and pride
enabling my ascent toward transformation mount...
Now having now the courage** to continue, leaving insecurities behind
I testify, "God is good all the time; all the time, God is good."
Restored from despair along divine healing bliss
grateful that from guilt graciously freed
to Christ, I cleave, fulfilling ministerial roles
persevering for mission’s achievement with kindness' cheer
while to the needy, willingly reaching-out...
Now having the privilege to serve as an encouragement
I strive to become a blessing in life-building pursuits.
Prevailing midst encouragement triumph
my heart indeed exalts the Lord
upheld as faith in Him increases
toward abounding stewardship-fruition
marked by servanthood-virtues, all thru His loving kindness...
Now courageously sharing the Gospel while facing crises
I ready myself, with gladness, for my Jesus' second coming.
*1Samuel 30:6And David was greatly distressed; ... but David encouraged himself in the LORD his God.
**Joshua 1:9 Have not I commanded thee? Be strong and of a good courage; be not afraid, neither be thou dismayed: for the LORD thy God is with thee whithersoever thou goest.
