1 Corinthians 10:13 

13 The temptations in your life are no different from what others experience.

And God is faithful. He will not allow the temptation to be more than you can stand.

When you are tempted, he will show you a way out so that you can endure.

 

Why should there be sorrows ... when blessings abound?

Is there a difference ... between temporal and everlasting?

Is not tomorrow lived fully ... in every perceived sound

And isn’t the hindrance ... the lack of precepts in the casting?

 

Is not our confusion ... a self-determined choice?

Are not the things we hunger for ... ruling our hearts?

Is it not temptation ... that brings power to our voice?

Is that what we are living for... our desires from the start?

 

Does not segregation ... tie us all together?

Are not we all the same ... in our chosen difference?

Is our need for salvation ... not based on whether

Depravity is a game ... or a conditional hindrance?
