This is a beautiful excerpt from the book God Guides by Mary Geegh sent in by Vicki Kelly. May it bless you as you receive the truths contained within it's lyrical prose.
Lord Jesus, Holy Spirit, control me this day, in all I think and do and say - every second along my way. Help me to change for the better and not decay. Help me to repent - to be born anew - so that I may see and turn to Thee, and as a child be - that I may enter into Thy kingdom and live - deny myself, and learn to give.
It was for me that Thou didn’t endure the shame, suffer and die, and rise - that I might laugh instead of cry - that I might sing instead of sigh, that I might love instead of fear, care instead of hate, trust in God instead of worry, walk in the Light instead of Night. Be king, gentle instead of mean. On Thy Holy Spirit let me lean.
Help me to cast the beam out of my own eye, to take up my cross daily, and follow Thee - humbly, lovingly, gaily.
Let Thy Truth make me free: hate-free, fear-free, greed-free. Within my heart and eyes make and keep me pure and true. Lord, use me then to bring Thy cure. Make me a channel of Thy Love, Joy, Peace, and Righteousness.
His answer comes to the “listening man” determined to know and obey God’s plan. “Everyone shall be taught by God.” “God-Control” - that is true Education. “Obedience is the Key.”
My Task: To do God’s Will - to forgive and not complain. Relax instead of strain. Be patient instead of mad; Rejoice and be exceedingly glad. To take up my cross, crucify self and pride, - Let God be my guide.
Christ did not die in vain. He arose - Risen indeed! To supply each soul’s deep need by His Holy Spirit - The Father’s Gift. Accept this Gift of God, and Him who speaks; You’ll never thirst again for that pet-scheme or indulgent dream, stained with guilt, fear, pride and strife -He gives you Power to have New Life. He in you shall conquer.
Be of good cheer - don’t fear - Let Him have control of your heart, body, mind, and soul. Be ye perfect as your Father in Heaven. Listen to Him. Hear Him, Obey Him.“If you love Me, keep my commandments.”
“Deny yourself, take up your cross daily, follow Me.”
“Abide in Me, My words in you, ask what you will, it shall be done.”
“Seek ye first the Kingdom of God, and His righteousness, all the other things shall be added onto
unto you.”
Follow Him up the Hill of Calvary. Behold the Light!
The Abundant Life; the world set free from hate, fear, and greed - men, women, children - God- inspired! God-controlled. The Cross of Christ gives New Birth. His Holy Spirit gives New Life to ALL on earth.
The Government shall be upon His shoulders:
The Crucified risen Lord - born indeed - to save and govern and guide you and me and the whole world with Victory over sin and need.
Lord Jesus, Holy Ghost, make us Thine. “By They Spirit armed and led and skilled - to obey Thy Plan till it be fulfilled.” Thy Redeeming Love for all Thy world. Victory! Victory! Lord, to Thee.
