Getting Serious

Sometimes you have to get serious with YOU.

But first ensure you know what you need to do.

Be honest with God, He knows you deep inside.

There is nothing you have done that you can hide.

Recounting your fears, hiding tears and shame.

Confessing all to Him, He forgives in Jesus name.

Now go deeper still and ask what you should do.

Lies told, deceits foiled, never corrected save You.

The more you ask God to show you the deeper you go.

The Spirit brings more to mind, you cannot say no.

Finally the Spirit urges me to “Rise up and go”.

You sins are forgiven and I have buried in the sea.

Your freedom has been bought and pardoned by Me.

You need to make peace with those you have hurt.

Those you have walked by and been mean and curt.

No dissensions found in Christ’s body the church.

If you gossip someone’s name you could besmirch.

Anger has a way of cutting and hurting someone deep.

You need complete resolution their friendship to keep.

Apologies are difficult for the person who is proud.

Words that are humble are often demeaning said aloud.

You are preparing your house, the corners swept clean.

Feeling such relief, deep inside you will feel so serene.

All is right with your world, you’ve done what you can.

The Spirit has led, surely this was His Master plan!
