Perspective of Life from God

Romans 8:26-28

The Spirit helps our infirmities as we seek,
Knowing not how to pray with being weak;
So the Spirit makes intercession of a voice,
Groaning that can not be uttered to rejoice;
Whoever searches the heart understands,
The true mind of the Spirit as it commands;
For He's making intercession for the saints,
As to the will of God in His constraints;
Knowing that all things work for the good,
To them that love the Lord as you should.
The Holy Spirit is upon us both you and me,
Giving us a new perspective proper to see;
For we are so weak while He is so strong,
His Spirit shows what is right and wrong;
But too many times we ignore the advice,
From our Lord through His Spiritual device;
Then we get in trouble and make mistakes,
Not listening to Him and knowing the stakes;
Sending His Spirit for perspective on life,
To do the right thing and avoiding strife.
