Grown

My soul my spirit from within
Longs to be fully united with Him
A part of this vessel always needs to be cleaned
A piece the flesh of this body that is me
So I try to follow to walk without sin
But this flesh of me still wants of empty material things
So my soul yearns and tries to break free from all these earthly impurities
To walk without this shame that binds and blinds
To search within and and with His forgiveness find
That I am human a sinful creature with a free will
I am prone to move when I should be still
I must take hold of my life and with all my strength
Run to my Lord who is my defense
For in His word I learn the truth In His sacrifice
I see His profound love taking root
His saving grace He bore upon that cross
His everlasting mercy to come from His pain not to be lost
So as I try to break free form my occasion to sin
I know with each decision at every rebuke of temptation I begin
To walk closer to Him as I stay
Under His mercy fountain that flows to help keep evil away
Because I fear my Lord, My father above
I don't want to hurt Him and disgrace His eternal love
I know that I can be forgiven of sin when I fall
But I shall do my best to follow free of it when He calls
So as these things these treasures here disappear
We will all learn to live and trust by His care
Instead we should be storing treasures of His love
To take with us into His heavens above
For He is our Father our Creator and He shall always provide
For this greed and envy has caused our Country to be stricken with pride
Looking to a man to solve to correct what's come of our sins
Instead of going to the mercy seat of the Lord and seeking our forgiveness from HIM
We all need to know of this grace
For those of us who do it is time to show our face
We must walk as an example of Him each day of our lives
Trusting He is with us and will be by our side
So as we walk and follow His call towards home
Let us try to save those sheep that have roamed
Let us walk with our Lord the best we know how
Each with our own gifts we plant the seeds and He plows
To find within each and every heart this seed that has grown
The one not withered and dry
The one not eaten by the birds in the sky
The one not choked by the weeds or planted on rocky soil
But for the one that has truly for The Lord labored and toiled Surely
He will gather His Harvest and in time
He will hold The fruits produced the one hundred and sixty or thirty fold

John 17;9-23

9I pray for them: I pray not for the world, but for them which thou hast given me; for they are thine. 10And all mine are thine, and thine are mine; and I am glorified in them. 11And now I am no more in the world, but these are in the world, and I come to thee. Holy Father, keep through thine own name those whom thou hast given me, that they may be one, as we are. 12While I was with them in the world, I kept them in thy name: those that thou gavest me I have kept, and none of them is lost, but the son of perdition; that the scripture might be fulfilled. 13And now come I to thee; and these things I speak in the world, that they might have my joy fulfilled in themselves. 14I have given them thy word; and the world hath hated them, because they are not of the world, even as I am not of the world. 15I pray not that thou shouldest take them out of the world, but that thou shouldest keep them from the evil. 16They are not of the world, even as I am not of the world. 17Sanctify them through thy truth: thy word is truth. 18As thou hast sent me into the world, even so have I also sent them into the world. 19And for their sakes I sanctify myself, that they also might be sanctified through the truth. 20Neither pray I for these alone, but for them also which shall believe on me through their word; 21That they all may be one; as thou, Father, art in me, and I in thee, that they also may be one in us: that the world may believe that thou hast sent me. 22And the glory which thou gavest me I have given them; that they may be one, even as we are one: 23I in them, and thou in me, that they may be made perfect in one; and that the world may know that thou hast sent me, and hast loved them, as thou hast loved me.

Matthew 13;3-9

³And he spake many things unto them in parables, saying, Behold, a sower went forth to sow;⁴And when he sowed, some seeds fell by the way side, and the fowls came and devoured them up:⁵Some fell upon stony places, where they had not much earth: and forthwith they sprung up, because they had no deepness of earth: ⁶And when the sun was up, they were scorched; and because they had no root, they withered away.⁷And some fell among thorns; and the thorns sprung up, and choked them:⁸But other fell into good ground, and brought forth fruit, some an hundredfold, some sixtyfold, some thirtyfold.
