Acts 2:43         New English Translation

43 Reverential awe came over everyone, and many wonders and miraculous signs came about by the apostles.

 

Wandering

 

Continual reverential fear is what our spirit needs

Can my spirit be rebellious in the presence of the Holy?

Is it another part of me that disobeys and fears?

Iniquity wallows me up and, in the mire, starts rolling.

 

Is my spirit in continual sorrow and feels helpless and blue?

Is it not the flesh that always fails me towards the multitude?

When redeemed, is that not forever, is not my spirit then renewed?

Filled with the Life of God, my Savior, molded there in gratitude.

 

His Power can remove the demons, and His Strength alter my mind

He can raise the best that is in me so that my shortcomings pass the test

The best I am is so filthy and my righteousness like dirty filthy rags

All this can’t touch my redeemed spirit, for my future is in Eternal rest

 

Is there spiritual awareness that has me move close to the contrite?

To release me then into poverty that God so loves in this old mite

Is not my dependence not most important to lean on God in all I do?

It makes me tremble in His Presence as I wander off when on the move
