Strength


  Romans 4:18-19         New English Translation

18 Against hope Abraham believed in hope with the result that he became the father of many nations according to the pronouncement, “so will your descendants be.” 19 Without being weak in faith, he considered his own body as dead (because he was about 100 years old) and the deadness of Sarah’s womb.

 

They, who are faithful, will not limit His power.

They won’t restrict His faith as through the Spirit He strengthens

In application to the body where the Holy Spirit dwells

For so are the ways of God as He the temporal lengthens

 

God's purpose gets accomplished  in His strength and call

God's Will perceives and heals His vessel for a perfect use

He prepared it long ago and so kept it by His power

Rather adequate towards His Life despite our abuse

 

Deuteronomy 34:7     New English Translation

7 Moses was 120 years old when he died, but his eye was not dull, nor had his vitality departed.
