PHILIPPIANS 4-6

Count all those blessings
You’ve been given
Be it soul thankful
Of your all delivering
No fretting on yesterdays
Or now tomorrows

I am looking at the perils of retirement. 
Retirement will not be the end of the road.

The road now leads to a new beginning. 
A beginning of a rebirth of some kind.

Some kind of a new version of myself. 
For myself, I have a tendency to rush to finish tasks.

My tasks now can focus on

Premium MemberViewpoint

Your viewpoint can be comforting,
Or your viewpoint can be troubling:
Either comforting as a safeguard,
Or as troubling as a canard.

A safeguard tunnels Saints through sin.
A canard tunnels sinners through spin.
Though God created man upright,
He schemes to hide sin from the light.

With idols in front of their faces,
The Lost stumble in dark places.
Seeking a number of oracles,
Swells

Slave King

When time became full
He became empty
Slave King Messiah
Adam's clemency.

The lion of Judah
Laid down as a lamb
Pietre Rebukes
This inhuman plan.

That night, this bread,
His flesh broken and torn
His blood spilled, drained
The wine of new dawn.

His body in tatters
Laid in the tomb.
The cloths laid aside
This tomb his new womb.

Victory rises;
So death is no more
The flesh of the lamb
will

Premium MemberLights In the World -Philippians 2: 12-18

Here the apostle Paul speaks to exhort
the beloved of the Lord to be his light
for this world needs the living gospel
God's His own to obedience so right

The Lord's free gift of salvation has a price
Jesus paid that price on Calvary's cross
His obedience there for us to follow on
to neglect His inspired word is our loss

In this world full of anxieties

Philippians Two Twelve

"...work out your own salvation with fear and trembling,"
meaning, you're alone physically, find a way out;
do all you can humanly, it's all the same thing
yet the Lord is with you, never without.

When faced with such terrible dilemmas
quickly turn to the Lord, for He hears thee;
though the problem faced are all fracas'
I made it through, oh!
