At Times
by
Barbara Philbrook
At times I have
thoughts I'd rather not.
I wish my mind would stay where it ought.
At times things
occur that get up my ire,
if you look into my eyes you'd see them afire.
At times I let
my self feel depleted,
those are the times I forget Satan has been defeated.
At times my
spirits sink kind of low.
I am capable of more but right then it doesn't show.
At times I
forget I am His child.
It's then I think of how I was sinfully defiled.
At times I need
a gentle nudge,
to remind me Jesus is my advocate with the Judge.
At times I slip
into depression,
but then remember I have been to the cross with my
confession.
At times the
human in me tries to overcome,
but then I remember I've accepted His invitation.
At times I sing
of my Father's glory,
because all these other times remind me of the salvation
story.
