TAKE A TIME OUT FOR TRUTH

(Inspired by the book
“Time Out for Truth”, Warren Martin, Life.Quest
Publications,
Sometimes
when the world
Closes in
like the night,
And the
Truth of God’s Word
Seems way
out of sight, 1
When
the pressures are high
And
you’re tired of the fight,
Take
a time out for Truth
And
rest in the Light.2
Your
feelings scream out,
Your
mind fills with doubt,
The
lie of the moment
Turns
life inside out.3
The
Truth is still there,
The
Truth that sets free.
The
Spirit is calling
“Just
rest now in Me”.4
Take
a time out for Truth,
And
you’ll have a view
Of
the presence of Jesus
Still
dwelling in you.5
In
a time out for Truth
We
focus on Jesus.
Then
we see ourselves
The
same as He see us.6
We’re
His children-completed.
There’s
nothing left out.
With
Him we are seated
In
Heaven no doubt.7
He
said it clearly,
As
plain as can be:
“I
am in you
and you are in Me.”8
Take
a time out for Truth.
The
Truth sets you free.
In
the midst of the battle
God’s
victory you’ll see.9
Take
a time out for Truth,
Anytime,
any place.
When
you’re frizzled and frazzled
From
the pace of the race.10
In
a time out for Truth
It’s
JESUS you’ll see.
He
IS THE TRUTH.
THE TRUTH sets you free.11
