No Shadow

Oh Lord, we’ve all betrayed You
We’ve all drawn near with a kiss
Then turned on You like Judas did
We’ve all tried to hide You
Like Peter we’ve denied You
Lord, we want to ascribe to You
All that is Your due
But too often we misconstrue
And we don’t do
What our lips say to You
Teach us to obey
Rather than betray
Teach us to do what we say
To love You today in such a way
That our reality will be
We’ll never again turn on Thee
And treat You like an enemy
May love abound not sin
May love warm us all within
May we enter in to Your Holiness
Till You confess –
There is no shadow of turning
in us.
Jam:1:17






The Lord has shown me there is a difference between betraying Him and denying Him. One is inward, the other outward. Judas honoured God with his lips (he kissed Him) but his heart was far from Him. Peter dishonoured Him with his lips but his heart belonged to Him…
