Where Is MY Delight?


In what does my soul delight

In whom shall I fear

I must confess that my soul

Delights in the world at times

Even though I am warned not do so

By The LORD Almighty God

I must allow THE LORD to open my eyes

To see those things as idols

An put my hope in THE LORD

Maker of Heaven and Earth

By my faith I say, He is enough for me

But when hardship, suffering, and despair

Shall I wimp out on The LORD

And put my trust in the latest gimmick

To alleviate the stresses in life

No, I must surrender to THE LORD

My whole heart and life

I must give HIM the glory due HIS NAME

And not bow down to another “god”

I must admit the pull and pressure to give in

Is overwhelming to me at times

But I know that I am more than a conqueror in JESUS

And nothing in the heavens above

In the earth or in the sea

Can be compared to the LIVING GOD

The Great Physician!

So, repent, my soul

For the things you have allowed

To take the Place of GOD in my life

Whether it be man, man-made, or the things you have created

I say, Dear Father, forgive me

For allowing and pursuing these things.

Teach me to overcome and be victorious in all these things

In Jesus name, Amen!
