Peace, says the young Believer, while there is no peace in his heart, <br />And when he's in a throng of True Believers, he only wants to depart. <br /> <br />If you're walking with The Lord, peace and joy will fill your heart, <br />But Satan attacks a half-hearted Christian and tears his peace apart. <br /> <br />Satan like a hungry lion, stalks Christians who question why believe, <br />He fills them with questions and doubts as he continues to deceive. <br /> <br />God sends only one Spirit that will fill you with security and peace, <br />But Satan uses many spirits to fill you with uncertainty and deceit. <br /> <br />God starts by sending The Holy Spirit to lead one to truly believe, <br />Satan follows to snatch The Truth with taunting spirits to deceive. <br /> <br />God then sends The Holy Spirit with submission to help you to abide, <br />Satan quickly whispers independence, to begin filling you with pride. <br /> <br />God sends The Holy Spirit with contentment to say I know your need, <br />Satan quickly sows some discontentment to fill your heart with greed. <br /> <br />God sends The Holy Spirit with gentleness to show you how to be meek, <br />Satan quickly lies and says The Truth will simply make you look weak. <br /> <br />Satan turns you from The Lord to fill you with the world's mystique. <br />This deception will continue until its The Lord you desire to seek, <br /> <br />God sent His Son Jesus to fill you with peace throughout your days, <br />But my dear friend a double-minded man is unstable in all his ways, <br /> <br />(Copyright © 03/2003)<br /><br />Bob Gotti<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/only-one-spirit-to-follow/
