we have enough – v4

we have enough
more than enough, truly,
so much to be thankful for
in our lives, in this walk

we have enough
if we slow our steps
if we take stock of our blessings
our joys in our walk

we have enough
in our lives already
we don’t need the sales
the glut of Black Friday

we have enough
more than enough, truly,
so much to be thankful for
in our lives, in this walk

Love at the Table – v2

We find love at the table
in the invitation of Christ;
We are fed, we are blessed,
our hunger, our thirst is quenched.

We find love at the table
at the welcome of God;
We are healed,
we are redeemed.

We find love at the table
in the words of Christ;
He offered His body
to give us new life.

We find love at the table
in the invitation of Christ;
We are fed, we are blessed,
our hunger, our thirst is quenched.

Chained by my debt

Chained by my debt
the judgment against me
a sentence of work
chasing Mammon
to pay my obligation
to settle my debt
to set the scales right

Chained by my debt
Matthew 6:24
“No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one,
and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise
the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon.”
 (King James Version KJV)
“You can’t worship two gods at once. Loving one god,
you’ll end up hating the other. Adoration of one feeds
contempt for the other. You can’t worship God and Money both.”
 (Message)
“No one can serve two masters. Either you will hate the one and
love the other, or you will be loyal to the one and have contempt
for the other. You cannot serve God and wealth.”

 (Common English Bible)
