Easily perceived
2 Timothy 4:3-4 New English Translation
3 For there will be a time when people[a] will not tolerate sound teaching. Instead, following their own desires, they will accumulate teachers for themselves, because they have an insatiable curiosity to hear new things, 4 And they will turn away from hearing the truth, but on the other hand they will turn aside to myths.
Easily
How easily our hearts turn from God in times of ease
To turn away from His Will and directly to His Gifts
Sickness is permitted by God, Who has all power
It is Satan directs it and when stopped throws a fit
To be satisfied with God’s Will and not murmur against it
It is shown rather clearly, how one reacts in sickness
If one seeks one’s own "will" there will be dis-satisfaction
If what God wants for your life is just anchor in forgiveness
Self-will: how to break it down. Is it stone by stone?
Self-love destroys what’s good as the spiritual lives in strife
Self-desire is called your old heart and we know what that will do
Self-made is a real joke it seems built on ignorance and pride
