Spirit’s Comfort

The Spirit whispers deep within me,
“Please do not fear evil’s cruelty.
Christ by His blood has set you free;
Come along and walk with Me eternally.

Though wicked ones strike out in envy,
In Me you walk the way of God’s decree.
For as surely as I live, you shall see
All your enemies’ final destiny.
This shall prove your Saviour’s victory:
Jesus Christ alive in you shall be.â€

(My response to the truth speaking.)

I tremble, totter, and I shake;
My lips they quiver, and I quake.
What can I say to Him, my Lord,
Who brings the wicked to His sword?
What can I do but kneel in awe
My new life in the Spirit I saw.

(The final outcome truth speaking, added many years later.)

The life I live today, He showed
Many years ago upon this road.
Though many sins dragged me below,
The Spirit showed what I would know.
Christ’s own life replacing my iniquity,
For only in Him dawns true liberty.
And even as His love washes wrong away,
God is building His kingdom day by day.
Now I live more fully what once was shown,
His Life replacing the bad life I had grown.
For the New life The Spirit prophesied above:
God remade me through Christ's saving love.
