Spiritual Maturity

Spiritual Maturity 

By Dr Marilyn Bouniu 

The degree of spiritual maturity 

Is measured by the difficulty 

Of stealing your joy and faith in the midst of

Great challenges and difficulties

The greater the spiritual maturity 

The harder it is to steal your joy and faith

But in order to gain greater maturity 

You must spend time with God and obey His Word

Running away from challenges

Will only impede your growth 

So best to face the challenges 

And thus let your spirit grow

Walking closely with the Lord 

Every step of the way 

Allowing the Lord to show 

His awesome Glory and Grace 

What Comfort It Is To Know

What Comfort It Is To Know 

By Dr Marilyn Bouniu 

What comfort it is to know 

That the Lord is here always 

With me in the rain and storm 

Keeping me safe in His Grace

What comfort it is to know 

That the Lord is in control 

Nothing can ever take away 

The Lord's sovereign rule and control 

What comfort it is to know

What the Lord did at the cross 

In Him I am eternally saved 

No longer bound, no longer lost 

Who You Become

Who You Become

By Dr Marilyn Bouniu

Do not be focussed on 

Where you are going

Instead be focussed on 

Who you're becoming 

For it is not where you go 

Nor is it how high you go 

But what matters to the Lord

Is how much in Him you grow 

To grow more and more like Him 

Each and every single day 

To abide closely in Him 

And to follow all of His Ways

Best From The Worst

Best From The Worst

By Dr Marilyn Bouniu

God can bring the best 

Out of the worst 

Do not be depressed 

March on forwards

God can bring the best 

Out of the worst 

Whatever the test 

Trust in God's Word

Easter

Blessed Easter & God bless you!

Easter

By Dr Marilyn Bouniu 

Easter is the day

Where the Lord made

An eternal Way

For us to be saved

The death of Jesus Christ

By crucifixion

Was to pay the price 

For our redemption 

His atonement 

For our sin

Was His arrangement

For us to be forgiven

And His resurrection to life 

Was to grant us eternal life 

In His Kingdom 

Forever with Him in freedom

No More Barrier

Good Friday Poem

No More Barrier

By Dr Marilyn Bouniu

O that blessed day

You gave us a way

To come close to You

When it torn in two

From top to bottom

The curtain tore

Our sins forgiven

Christ's shoulder bore

No more barrier

Between God and us

When God the Father

Gave us Lord Jesus

Remember Where Your Strength Is From

Remember Where Your Strength Is From 

By Dr Marilyn Bouniu

Do not be disheartened 

Though the storms come fiercely 

Your life shall not be threatened 

For You are under Mercy 

The Lord protects His children 

Lifting them above the storm 

Nothing can ever harm them 

Nothing can ever go wrong 

The Lord is in control of all things 

The beginning and end He determines 

His love and Grace for you unending 

The path that He leads is always a win 

You can trust Him in the fiercest storm

In the darkest night and deepest valley 

So remember where your strength is from 

Abide in the Lord and be still in Him
