This afternoon we heard from Pastor Tay
Jesus wants the church to grow every day
In quantity and quality it must grow
To impact the world, so all will know
He focused on Mark chapter seven
Verses thirty one to thirty seven
The itinerary was far from the norm
Allowing disciples to see Jesus perform
And using the story of the deaf mute
Pastor’s three lessons are hard to refute
In order for good disciples to make
These are the steps we must take
The first is to spend lots of time
Not taking responsibility is a crime
This is doubly true with our children
Else they won’t become Christian women and men
The time must be intentional
In other words, a priority full
Also be interested in a person’s well being
About their issues we should be seeing
The second is a model to be
So all the disciples can see
For divine opportunities we should look
Our hunger for God cannot be mistook
We need to consider others’ needs
And ensure we always do good deeds
Try to be personal and considerate
Don’t embarrass them, even a wee bit
We must look to God for restoration
Feeling His heartbeat is not an aberration
Sins are for this world a blight
We must try to get them out of sight
No illness is beyond God to heal
If His power we do feel
The third is to God glory we must bring
In what we do, say, think, and sing
Knowledge and life we should impart
If God’s love is in our heart
Knowledge is of course in the head
Conviction is in the heart instead
A change of mindset is what we need
Allowing our lives a new heart to lead
Jesus is always willing to journey with us
We should journey with Him without a fuss
