Exhort

I urge you, ponder deeply every word,
Then ask of God if these things hold their light;
For wisdom comes from seeking truth aright,
And thus, His voice within you shall be heard.

I urge you, trust in gifts that God bestows,
Deny them not, nor let His power fall;
In Him alone we’re anchored through it all,
For by His grace alone our courage grows.

Remember, every good descends from grace,
Through Christ, who lights the way with steady hand;
In Him, all truth and love forever stand—
His peace endures and fills the empty space.

Keep in your heart each plea I’ve humbly told;
Come unto Christ with courage strong and bold.

The Way of Truth

I strongly encourage you
to read these words and ponder them in your heart.
then ask God if true for that will make you smart.

I strongly encourage you
to never deny the power of God nor his gift.
Make sure you use his gift to keep adrift.

I strongly encourage you
to remember that all good comes in and through,
same as it has and will be Christ, it's true.

I strongly encourage you
to remember all these things I have told,
for you to come unto Christ is very bold.
