#11 Assurance
Are you sure you are among the chosen few
Who enter glory when life on earth is through?
It is not enough to have a warm feeling
After hearing a sermon that's appealing
Or sign a decision card or raise your hand,
Affirming you believe God's salvation plan.
Your life will be changed and your heart made anew
If the Holy Spirit is indwelling you.
From each and every sin you will turn away
And seek to obey whate'er the Scriptures say.
Your affections will be upon things above.
Your motive t'wards others will be to show love.
Your supreme desire will be to do God's will,
And though you lose all for Him, you'll serve Him still.
While none of these things can save you from your sin,
They provide assurance you've been born again.

"If you want to know the past, to know what has caused you, look at yourself in the PRESENT, for that is the past's effect. If you want to know your future, then look at yourself in the PRESENT, for that is the cause of the future."
--Majjhima Nikaya

"Let go of your attachment to being right, and suddenly your mind is more open. You're able to benefit from the unique viewpoints of others, without being crippled by your own judgment."
--Ralph Marston
