Hope in purity


1 John 3:3 

And everyone who has this hope focused on Him purifies himself, just as Jesus is pure).

Titus 1:15 “To the pure all things are pure but to the unbelieving and defiled nothing is pure …”

 

Hope gives strength and Life as it washes away uncertainty

Now it also purifies and makes opportunity complete

Hope goes to any length and paves the way in destiny

As surely it magnifies and brings to life every good deed

 

Purity seems impossible to achieve in the flesh

But now it is available deep within the Spirit

Away now with the probable and every second guess

For now all is possible as with Christ we inherit

 

To the pure all things are pure to the defiled nothing is so

To observe through Christ’s Love it seems all washes clean

It helps somehow to endure as in His presence we go

In commitment in desire of Life with all righteous means
