Now I Fight To His Glory

 Now I Fight To His Glory

As the Lord edited Our story

He showed me the nature of my purpose

And now I fight to His glory

Moving closer to His territory

In His care I need not fear

As the Lord edited Our story

Although hard in this reformatory

I give in and do shed a tear

And now I fight to His glory

When in His care my being viewed

He does act on Our behalf knowing

It's to His glory where change is spewed

I then submit to this knowledge bestowing

More tears in realizing in Him I trust

As I know my faith is now growing

To this revelation I know a must

As the Lord edited Our story

My being now wakes to this being just

In faith now I fight to His glory

Thoughts: As Christians we are contentiously in growth. And sometimes this growth can be very painful as God trims and prunes us for His purpose. We must have faith in Him alone to survive this world and know He will generate this faith; sometimes in the most unexpected and awesome ways. With me, I thought I needed friends and a mate to be whole. But the Lord recently gave me the knowing that my wholeness does not lay in mankind; but, rather faith in Him alone. Don't take me wrong, I do not dislike people nor do I think people just cannot be trusted; however, due recent events my faith in people has been affected in proving this to be faulty; whereas, faith in God and belief in His Son is never faulty. My eyes have been opened in a very painful, but a just and necessary way, in building my faith in Him alone. "For in it the righteousness of God is revealed from faith to faith; as it is written, The just shall live by faith." (Romans 1:17. NKJV). Don't know God's purpose in the way He has intervened in my life to build my faith in Him alone, only know my purpose now is to live in this faith as my fight to His glory.
