Living Stones In Christ: A Shepherd Looks at Psalm 23

Yes, indeed! We serve a Wonderful God!

SALT AND LIGHT

Ye are the salt of the earth: so have peace one with another having salt within,
Salt is good but if it has lost its savour it's to be cast out under the foot of men.
Behold, how good and how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity!
God hates the leaven of discord sown in secret by proud lips having no humility!

God's chastening works a Godly sorrow, but nevertheless:
Afterward, it yieldeth the peaceable fruit of righteousness.
While we were yet enemies, Jesus died for the human race;
Legalism has no compassion, not knowing the Way of Grace.

Make straight paths: Thy Word is a Lamp unto my feet,
And a Light unto my path;
And be ye soon reconciled to thy brother: do not let the
Sun go down on your wrath.

Self righteous religionists are unmerciful,
A blind, judgmental path they have trod;
The day they see His face they will know:
They have trampled on the Blood Of God!

Jesus said: Go forth and learn mercy as He sent them on their way;
They have so much religious pride without humility when they pray;
Truth learned from other men but Truth from God they did not seek;
If you go seven days without seeking Truth it truly makes one weak!

[For we're not ignorant of his devices:]
Lest Satan should get an advantage of us;
We commit all judgment to The LORD God:
Righteous God decides who to curse or bless.

Pray one for another, that ye may be healed,
Our faults one to another confess;
Abide in Grace and forgive unless in trouble:
Your heart springs into bitterness.
God chastens us that we might follow peace
With men, partaking His Holiness.

We are Salt and Light! In this world filled with hate and crime!
We thank God and give to God glory in all of our life so Divine!
Meekly bringing Hope to others for The Word makes us shine!

Be not afraid! Sanctify the Lord God in your hearts:
And be ready always to give an answer to every man
That asketh you a reason of The Hope that is in you
with meekness and fear: [Preaching Salvation's plan!]

Grace

The blessings of salvation are freely given to us by God; therefore, they are not a temporary loan that is one day to be recalled.  (Charles Spurgeon)
