Philippians 1:6           New English Translation

6 For I am sure of this very thing, that the one who began a good work in you will perfect it until the day of Christ Jesus.

 

Out of focus and all about self

 

Who will not initiate everything from within

Who is inclined to follow God’s will perfectly?

Who dares to attack powers of darkness incessantly?

Who gives himself constantly uninterrupted to God?

 

Who follows God in every step he takes?

Who never wanders off alone by self?

Who does not glare at all that appears 

Who does not desire a fair share of the lot?

 

Why notice the wicked prosper?

Is it not that I want part of it?

Why do we focus on other men?

Why are our eyes mostly in that spot?

 

It is not to love our neighbor

It seems not for the love of God

Is it then not for an answer?

Is it to condemn or not?
