Don’t Get Burned

5 Replies

I love to camp in the summer

And cook on the open flames

The food is so delightful

When we cook that way

 

Once in a while I’ll slip up

And get too close to the fire

I feel the heat on my hand

And I know that’s not my desire

 

I just can’t imagine the suffering

Of eternity spent in Hell

The heat of those flames unceasing

For all who who missed Christ and fell

 

So today put your trust in Jesus

And ask Him into your heart

Avoid the flames of that fire

And make a brand new start

I’m Not Into That!

1 Reply

I’m not really into digital

Or even much on vegetal

They just seem to leave my mind at such a loss

But I am into Jesus Christ my Lord

For He is the one that I adore

He freed me from sin forever at such a cost

For He gave His life at Calvary

To make away for you and me

To share in His soul salvation for all time

So please won’t you ask Him in today

He’ll hear you when you humbly pray

And you will make heaven yours with eternal life

Wonder or Wander?

1 Reply

When I was young I’d wander

Through life with little hope

The many days I squandered

Kept me on a slippery slope

 

My soul was caught in trouble

My mind was bent on fun

I sought drink on the double

I thought my days were done

 

I had no cares of future

I partied day and night

Then I became a searcher

And wandered toward the Light

 

The Light, I learned, was Jesus

I learned He died for me

I asked Him for forgiveness

From sin, I was set free

 

Now I wonder at His mercy

I marvel at His grace

One day to heav’n He’ll take me

And I will see His face

 

From wandering to wondering

This change brought peace and joy

There is no more meandering

My life I now enjoy

 

fI you are wondering through life

And wonder what to do

Why not give Him all your strife

And new life He’ll give you?

I Just Want To Thank You

I just want to thank you

For all you’ve done for me

I wouldn’t be alive without you

I just want to thank you

For your great love for me

You loved me before I knew you

 

You give me air to breath

And light so I can see

You keep me on the ground with gravity

You keep my heart beating

You keep my lungs breathing

You keep my body functioning

 

You place beauty everywhere

Like birds up in the air

They fly majestically everywhere

The trees are beautiful

The sky with clouds are full

The sun comes up and sets as usual

 

I just want to thank you

For all you’ve done for me

I wouldn’t be alive without you

I just want to thank you

For your great love for me

You loved me before I knew you

 

And then you sent your Son

Your one and only Son

To come and share your love for me

He taught the masses truth

From elderly to youth

He taught us how think and how to be

 

And then He gave His life

Became my sacrifice

And from my sin I was set free

He died to conquer sin

And He rose from death again

To give me life eternally

 

I just want to thank you

For all you’ve done for me

I wouldn’t be alive without you

I just want to thank you

For your great love for me

You loved me before I knew you

I Fixed My Thinking!

I thought once about all of my sin

And the life I was living so fast

That first time I chose not to change

Anything that I’d done in the past

 

But upon second thought, I decided

That hell ws not taking my life

So I fell on my knees before Jesus

And I asked His forgiveness that night

 

He washed my sins whiter than snow

And now Heaven’s my home for all time

There’s no second thoughts in me now

I’m blessed in my Savior divine

To some it may be irksome

That to the daily prompt

I post about my Savior Jesus Christ

If I was still without Him

And I would read the lines

I think I’d start to skip these posts of mine

 

But I cannot obstain

From  proclaiming His dear name

At every chance I’m given in this life

So  though it may irk some

If I can reach just one

I’ll mention His salvation every time

Beyond Belief

Leave a reply

I must say it is not true

That you can save yourself

 

If Jesus isn’t Lord

Then you’ll wind up in hell

But it’s also no hyperbole

It’s a fact that brings relief

That life in Jesus Christ

Is blessed beyond belief

He Endured For Me

1 Reply

It was not a pretty sight

In Jerusalem  that day

As they bludgeoned my Jesus

With cat-o-nine tails

 

Blood all around

Crown of thorrns on  His  head

Then up to Golgotha

Nails in His feet and hands

 

He endured it all

To wash away my sin

From the cross He cried out

Father forgive them

 

And the Father looked down

And saw His one Son

Ands forgave every sin

For all who choose Him

I can’t imagine what it took

For God to give His Son

No other god would even think 

Of what our God has done 

He didn’t copycat His plan

To set the captive free 

He planned it from the very start

To save a wretch like me.
