Its not about your fault



It is not about you when you lose your job
Because the company is undergoing structural changes,
It's not about you when your house is demolished
To achieve the  government's developmental projects
It's not about you when legislation proposes
Another method of getting things done:
Why cry "why me? "
When the whole of creation chorus:
All things work out for your good.

It's not about the man born blind,
Open your eyes and beyond the effect see
There's a cause for every event you see:
To bring glory to God.
In the crucible of tough times,
Reason melts,  faith survives,
Charisma fails,  Character fortified,
Compromise quakes, competence faints
But confidence in God's leading Keeps you

There's a question for the  tough times:
LORD,  what will you have me do,
Yours might be,  be still see God's salvation
To another,  launching into the deep
To yet another, be locked up with the jar and oil
God's word  is the wisdom to survive the wild
The meek listen, arrogant fights for right
The Obedient gets assistance,  disobedient resistance

What will you do in difficult times?
It's not about you
though it's all around you
It is not about your wrong action
It's about your wonderful destination
For there can be no promotion
Without Adequate preparation
Get Up! Seek God's will and obey,
Friend, Why die in Samaria
when food waste in Syrian camp?

Learning as Christ Did


He knew the importance of the scriptures,
It is the essential difference between men and sculptures;
He took his time to study the scrolls, a form of the bible,
He knew it is the most powerful rifle;
In the battle with the devil,
With the word, He overcame evil;
Have you read your Bible today?
About your situation and purpose, it has something to say!

Do you feel shy to ask questions?
Jesus sat with the leaders in the heart of tensions;
From a tender age, He began to discover,
Through interrogation, what he came to recover;
His questions, who can answer?
Before Him, Human Wisdom was shattered,
By Divine Revelation, Peter could answer,
And all the evil plans for him were scattered.

What do you learn from suffering?
Submission in Obedience or Arrogance in Grumbling;
What do you learn from giving?
Cheerfulness birthing Significance or frugality for poverty;
What has persecution taught you?
If not the fathers’ will, nothing harms you!
What did Jesus learn from temptation?
They are access to greater future and he can overcome!

Will you learn as Jesus did?
Follow the Spirit’s leading,
Don’t hold on to hurts of what people did,
Open your heart to the Lord’s healing;
Do not despise the days of little beginning,
Stone by stone, you, the Lord is building,
Neither grumble nor complain,
Father’s intention will soon become plain.

He listened to the father,
He observed the father;
What the father does, he did;
Where the father led, he went;
He followed in God’s Step,
He entered into God’s Rest;
As a son, Approved of the Father,
He learnt the will of the father
