Our Salvation

Restart

2 Replies

I come to you with just one plea
That you would listen close to me
It’s not that I am all that smart
I just have something to impart

This life can be a lonely place
Time seems to vanish as we race
Friends come and go as years pass by
There is no rhyme or reason why

We all need one to walk us through
The valleys that our steps don’t choose
When storms arise we’ll have that friend
That will be with us to the end

Jesus Christ is just that way
He’ll walk alongside us each day
If you have made Him Lord of all
His strong arms will not let you fall

Ask Him to take your sin away
Ask Him to live in you today
Then follow Him with all your heart
You’ll find that life has hit restart

Let Your Prayer be Heard

11 Replies

I pray today that you be healed
Of sickness you may carry
Take up your bed
By God be led
Don’t let this sickness tarry

I pray today that you be free
Of finance that does bind you
Ask wisdom from
The Lord above
He’ll tell you what to do

God does authorize our prayers
Over all the power of the enemy
Nothing can stand against His word
He overcome the world for me

I pray today that you be free
Of sins that haunt your life
He died that day
On Calvary
Accept His sacrifice

I pray today that faith will rise
Within your new creation mind
And you will know
He loves you so
And will for all of time

No matter what your prayer may be
He authorizes you to speak
To quench the power of the enemy
So let your prayer be heard

God does authorize our prayers
Over all the power of the enemy
Nothing can stand against His word
He overcome the world for me

Your Child

2 Replies

Jesus you’re my all in all
You’re everything to me
Through all my days
In all my ways
Your child I’ll always be

You fill me with your spirit
You captivate my mind
My sin is gone
By your sweet love
Freedom in you I find

And when the storms come my way
I merely call your name
You calm the sea
Your arms hold me
I’m safe in your embrace

I’ll lift my praises to you
I’ll lift your precious name
I love you so
Jesus my Lord
In you I will remain

Not A Fairy Tale

Leave a reply

Three little pigs
Hansel & Gretel
Jack and the beanstalk too
Little Jack Horner
Red Riding Hood
The elves and the man who made shoes

All of these stories and so many more
Have been shared by folk down through the years
By consensus they are what we call fairy tales
Just to bring us both laughter and tears

But the story of Jesus is real my friend
He came down from heaven for you
He is King of Kings and Lord of Lords
He came to tell us the truth

God loved us so much he gave us His Son
Jesus died on the cross for me
Then He rose again to give us new life
Forever we are set free

If you’ve not accepted this gift today
The gift of His mercy and grace
Then confess your sin
Ask Him to come in
Then you will be saved today

Our Salvation

I Had Been Good

2 Replies

I wandered aimlessly about
Not knowing I was wrong
Thinking all the while
That God would go along

He didn’t mind my sin
He really understood
After all most of my life
I really had been good

Then i heard that Jesus
Was God’s only true Son
I learned He died for me
So my sins would be gone

He took all my transgression
He nailed it to that cross
‘Twas then I realized
What my sin truly cost

I asked Him to forgive me
To wash my sins away
I told Him I would make Him Lord
I’d serve Him every fay

Now I am bound for heaven
I pray that you are too
Make Jesus Christ your Lord today
His love will pardon you

I Want to Thank You Lord

2 Replies

In appreciation of all the psalms, poems, songs and worship choruses the Lord has given me over the past 8 years, I am posting my favorite one for the daily prompt this morning.  My singing is not the best, but the message is from my heart.  Even through my battle with cancer, I never stopped thanking Him for His mercy.  We serve an awesome God.

I want to thank you Lord for your mercy in my life
I want to thank you Lord for your great sacrifice
You have given me your all
Help me give my all to you
I want to thank you Lord

You deserve the highest praise
You deserve the highest praise
You deserve the hghest praise
My heart can give

Be Blessed!

To Preserve

2 Replies

I think we all should be aware
That we all touch the lives
Of people all around us
In ways that might surprise

Some might be like pepper
Hot and full of zip
Others more like lemon
Sour words that nip

Some might burn like cinnamon
Some garnish like parsley
Some are sweet like sugar
Some are like rosemary

As a Christian I am called
To be salt of the earth
This spice has many uses
But one is to preserve

I am called to help you through
The roughest hours and days
To keep you through the storms
By building up your faith

Salt does not tear down or hurt
It only helps survive
May all who say they follow Christ
Be salt to others lives

The Believers Walk

What is Life?

Leave a reply

What is life
Why are we here on this earth
An earth filled with strife
An earth filled with fear

What should we do
With this life we’ve been given
With all we’ve been through
While we’ve been living

I cannot answer for you my friend
But I know the answer I found
The definition of why I am here
Is to tell of my Saviors love

When I was lost He called to me
He loved me even in my lost estate
He died on a cross a long time ago
That from my despair I could escape

My life is now centered on Him
I must tell you all that He died for you
There’s no one that He cannot save from their sin
Won’t you accept His great love for you

Cry out to Jesus forgive me my Lord
I give you my sin please save me today
He’ll gather you up in His loving arms
You’ll be His child for all of your days

Transformation

8 Replies
I’ve had a change of lifestyle

Through the last 40 years
I’ve walked through hills and valleys

I’ve shed a lot of tears

My life before was earthly
Filled with drugs and drink
My mind was in the gutter
My tongue spewed only stink
But then I met my Savior
He washed my sins away
He’s changed my life completely
Now mercy fills my days
There’s still vestigial sins
That haunt my tongue and mind
Every day I ask the Lord
To free me from my pride
For pride us what will keep me
From giving all to Him
When I control this heart of mine

Gone

I had a problem yesterday

The Daily Prompt led me astray
I thought it was procrastinate

Turned out it was prognosticate

Today fugacios will take center stage
This word is foreign to my mind
I had to look it up this time
If i am right with what i find
This poem wiil slowly fade
Fade away
Into the day
Gone
Gone
Gone
