May our Lord Jesus Christ himself and God our Father, who loved us and by his grace gave us eternal encouragement and good hope, encourage your hearts and strengthen you in every good deed and word.
2 Thessalonians 2:16?-?17 NIV
May God encourage your heart
And remind one of the good hope
When all might seem hopeless
In this world which loves darkness
Christ has paid the price for you
The living Will given to us from His death
That we might receive His spirit
The one inheritance available to all.
Will you claim your gift from Jesus death
The most beautiful treasures within
That none can take away
To be pulled out this darkness
With a new vision of what's going on around us
His word has been manipulated by many
In their own lust for self praise to seek fame.
Left, one to wonder ,why so many religions.
God's word tells this all so plainly
We are still fighting against this evil world
That crucified Jesus but have a way to escape now
That we might return to God through Christ
Myself , had grown up hopeless in my surroundings
Of thinking why is God allowing all these things.
Listening to all around me in blindness.
Not seeking Christ on my own being misguided
It took me ,to have a job that keep me away
From home everyday life for a month at a time.
In order to finally seek His word for myself
That's when His word came to life.
His word is the Author of Life , the I Am
Seek His spirit promised from God
Which is available to create within a new life
Guidance, understanding, knowledge ,hope,
And new love for all in seeing all have this
Available but have just been deceived from satan.
God is the only hope, peace, and love to be found
To be placed within removing the old self.
Receiving new strength, spirit, joy, peace and love.
