faith's secret..

So where your treasure is, your heart is too,

and shows what you trust in, to keep it safe.

And what you speak about, will speak of you,

and how you say the words, shows what’s enslaved

you, yet, or freed you up to re-create

along with God, as he's right into that.

And so Faith’s secret’s in your heart I say,

and from your mouth, as words, or kisses splat.

“This is the day The Lord has made”, he said,

“We will rejoice, and gladden in it, too”.

His words, and heart responses will be led

by what his faith is placed in! And that’s  true.

And though you must endu-re many trials

for these few years upon this little Earth.

These hard things prove your faith is more than smiles

it's genuine, it is refined, and worth

much more than gold (which also is refined).

Be truly glad! There’s great joy up ahead.

And when your faith remains strong you will find

these trials have served to bring you praise instead.

Much praise, and glory, honour will be yours

when Jesus is seen as the Christ of God

-  revealed unto the whole world, then, because

you cannot keep a good man down for long.

And when all the pretences are undone,

and what is true, is known for what it is,

I want to be known as his servant/son,

and my responses to be like to his.

The secret of Faith is in your heart and in your mouth Roman 10:8 (PM Version)

This is the day The Lord has made. We will rejoice and be glad in it!! Psalm 118:24 (PM Version)

Be truly glad!!! There is wonderful joy ahead. Even though you have to endure many trials for a little while. These trials prove that your faith is genuine, being refined by fire, your faith is more precious than gold. So when your faith remains strong through these trials, it will bring you much praise, glory and honour when Jesus Christ is revealed to the whole world. 1 Peter 1:6-7
