Harmony
by
Barbara Philbrook
Harmony is what
I strive for in my life.
I desire to live free of tension, maliciousness and
strife.
I wish to live
lovingly amid my fellow man,
doing as much for others as I possibly can.
Live in such a
manner as the Bible guides,
following the Holy Spirit who within abides.
When I accepted
God's offer of salvation,
I invited the Holy Spirit to begin a renovation.
To clean my
heart of all it's filth and sin,
and a new creation in me to begin.
The work was
started that very day,
and I've been promised that within me He will stay.
Leading me in
the way I should go,
teaching me all I need to know.
Loving others in
a way I couldn't on my own,
reflecting God's love so they too will be shown.
Not causing
arguments fights or dissension.
Not bringing to God any negative attention.
Attracting
others by God's peaceful loving example.
Showing them that God's grace is ample.
Harmony attracts
the attention of others,
hopefully they'll become our sisters and brothers.
