Seven Simple Questions

Every Christian is called to ask While working with Master’s task Seven simple questions always Evaluating what one’s spiritual growth says. If sin in heart had we cherished, God our prayers would’nt have listened Question, ‘Am I to willful sins a slave?’ Cry, “Lord may it not my soul, enslave.” Does God delight in a ritual sacrifice? No. To obey Him is better than sacrifice Ask, ‘Am I obeying God everyday?” Plead, “Keep me obedient throughout my stay.” Creator craves for our friendship He desired the first couple’s fellowship Ponder, “Am I spending time at His feet?” Request, “May meeting You be my heart beat.” Researchers and readers never stagger For His word is a double-sided dagger Examine, “Am I reading His word?” Entreat, “Father! Give me the Spirit’s sword.” Christ is the world’s light, truth and way Proclaim praises of His name this day Consider, “Am I professing Christ everywhere?” Petition, “Give me grace Your love to share.” It is better to give than to receive This profound truth let’s perceive Think, “Am I contributing my mite?” Say, “In giving, may I please Your sight.” Doing deeds is better than hearing As Christians we are aware of this saying Reflect, “Am I mighty in word and deed?” Beg, “Lord! May I be fruits bearing seed.”
