and grants us sweet
release.

Fruit Of Righteousness

 

The fruit of righteousness
is sown in peace

by those who make
peace too

born of His wisdom
pure and gentle

full of mercy
through and through.

**********

Lord, I desire Your righteousness to be sown in me and bear fruit, by the wisdom that only can come from You.

**********

“But where envy and self-seeking exist, confusion and every evil thing will be there.”

“But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, willing to yield, full of mercy, and good fruits, without partiality and without hypocrisy.”

“Now the fruit of righteousness is sown in peace by those who make peace.”

James 3:16,17,18. NKJV

Let us stand firm
and undismayed

seeing the salvation
God displays

fighting for us
while we remain

holding onto
our Peace always.

The One who accomplishes salvation is with me.

You Are A Blessing

 

I will save you
to be a blessing

do not fear
let your hands be strong

speaking the truth
to one another

letting justice and peace
take the place of wrong.

**********

You are with me so I am a blessing.

**********

“And it shall come to pass that just as you were a curse among the nations, O house of Judah and house of Israel, so I will save you, and you shall be a blessing. Do not fear, let your hands be strong.”

“These are the things you shall do: speak each man the truth to his neighbor; give judgement in your gates for truth, justice, and peace;”

“let none of you think evil in your heart against your neighbor; and do not love a false oath. For all these are things that I hate.”

Former And Latter

 

If what you see
doesn’t measure up

to how things used
to be

stay brave and keep
moving on

into My greater
glory.

**********

You are with me and change what I see.

**********

” ‘Who is left among you who saw this temple in its former glory? And how do you see it now? In comparison with it, is this not in your eyes as nothing?’ “

” ‘Yet now be strong, Zerubbabel,’ says the LORD; ‘and be strong, Joshua, son of Jehozadak, the high priest; and be strong, all you people of the land,’ says the LORD, ‘and work, for I am with you,’ says the LORD of hosts.”

” ‘The glory of this latter temple shall be greater than the former,’ says the LORD of hosts. ‘And in this place I will give peace,’ says the LORD of hosts.”

Whatever Things

 

Our God of peace

and helps guide
our thoughts

to whatever things
are true and noble

to whatever things are
pure and just.

I can think good thoughts for You are with me.

“Finally, brethren, whatever things are true, whatever things are noble, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report, if there is any virtue and if there is anything praiseworthy – meditate on these things.”

“The things which you learned and received and heard and saw in me, these do, and the God of peace will be with you.”
