SHAPING OUR WORLD VIEW
SHAPING OUR WORLD VIEW
What shapes your view
Of the world?
Is it the world
And what it tells us is important?
Or
Is it God-Jesus
And their teachings
And the bible?
The world
Tries to sell us products
With a beautiful woman
Or a handsome man
Hawking their products
They tell you
IF you buy their product
Your life will be
A success
And you may attract
A woman or a man
That looks like them
The world sells us beauty-
Material possessions-health and science
But God tells us
IT really is what is INSIDE
That counts
That we ALL MATTER
NO MATTER what we look like
No matter
How much money we have
And no matter
What our health status is
I CHOOSE
To BELIEVE IN GOD
In what he is TEACHING
And that is what
I have found to be TRUE
IN LIFE
“I WILL thank you ALWAYS
For what you have done
And PROCLAIM THE GOODNESS
Of your name
BEFORE your faithful ones” Psalm 52:11
God SAVED my life
Over and over again
BEGINNING over 38 years ago
I have been BLESSED to
RECEIVE a lifetime
With my mother and father-
and my sisters-relatives-and friends
I will NEVER FORGET
That and the fact
That GOD CREATED the world
And Jesus CONQUERED the world
That is WHY GOD'S WORD
-NOT the marketing geniuses
WILL FOREVER SHAPE
My view of the world
“He rules the world
In RIGHTEOUSNESS
And judges the peoples
With equity” Psalm 9:8
“I was formed
Long ages ago
At the very beginning
WHEN the world
Came to be” Proverbs 8:23
IF I live
As the world
Tells me to live
I will NEVER be satisfied
I can NEVER get enough
But Jesus-God's SON
Conquered the world
And ALL the evil in it
Could not kill him
“I have told you
These things
So that in me
You may have PEACE
In this world
You will have trouble
But TAKE HEART
I have OVERCOME
The world” John 16:33
And HE told us:
“I am
THE LIGHT OF THE WORLD
Whoever follows me
Will NEVER walk in darkness
But will have
THE LIGHT OF LIFE” John 8:12
I will LIVE IN GRATITUDE
ALL the days of my life
Dear Lord-IN YOUR LOVE-
I AM CONTENT
