2 June 2013 - ENCS

Pastor Larry's parents helped start a new series "The Code"
First, from his father, testimonies and prayers flowed
Then his mother Josie, a native American Indian, stood
And shared a couple of stories like only a mother could
 
Her message was based on Romans 12 verses nine to fifteen
Love, honour, prayer, joy, hospitality, and blessings are seen
In order to live with genuine love we must have forgiveness
For if we do not let go of old offenses, we will be in a mess
Remember that God forgave us and all of our sin
So why shouldn't we do that for others with a grin
 
She then shared some testimony from her earlier years
When she received salvation, her attitude switched gears
She realised that we should not carry offenses in our heart
Unforgiveness stops God's love from playing its part
For God says to speak about life not death
We should not be discouraged in any breath
 
For each, God has a purpose and in His kingdom, a part
To do this, there can be no blockage of love in our heart
We need to be faithful in prayer, especially for others
Even for those who persecute fellow Christian brothers
For forgiveness brings love which in turn brings blessing
This is God's desired path, there is no prize for guessing
As we honour God with our action
He honours us as a natural reaction
