2 Peter 1:3
His divine power has given us everything we need
for a godly life through our knowledge of him
who called us by his own glory and goodness.
The older I grow the more aware I grow, of my utter need,
hopeless but for God's sufficient grace
He died for all to be our Saviour.
He has and will continue to supply every need according
to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus!
Hallelujah, what a Saviour!
Sometimes it's easy to be distracted
as we peer through the lens of circumstance!
Pray we anchor perspective in God's word.
But my God shall supply all your need
according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus.
Phil.4:19
God gives us all we need to keep faith undeterred
Where it is up to us to heed or disregard His Word
His divine power grants and helps us, by His grace
To bear the trying circumstance that we are bound to face
God gives us all we need to live a godly life
To purify thought, word and deed in a world full of strife
To teach us how to love, through Jesus’ precedent
Rather than by the standard of Self’s very selfish bent
God paid salvation’s price and fits us faithfully
To be a living sacrifice with glad humility
To answer ‘here am I’, then, not let fear impede
But trust His goodness to supply exactly what we need
Pray, faith's knowledge of Him increases more and more
Till the allures of this world dim in Light of hope's anchor
Secured at Calvary, redemption's mercies brim
To give us all we need to spend eternity with Him
