A New Catch

1 Reply

When I was a kid, the water

Was one place I liked to play

Catching bullfrogs, skippping rocks

Was how we spect our day

 

And one more thing consumed our time

And sent us ’round the town

The thirll of catching one big fish

That I could call my own.

 

Iit wasn’t easy work too do

Those fish would fight real hard

To be quite honest, I was not

A fishermann at heart..

 

So fishing is a memory

That I don’t live today

The thought of stannding, waiting

Just doesn’t make my day.

 

However there’s anothe kind

Of fishing that I know

This kind is something I  can do

Wherever I might go

 

Jesus came to save me

And to set me free indeed

But He alos had a plan for me

To help find those in need.

 

He said I’d be a fisherman

The lost would be the catch

So now I fish ’bout every day

And hope someone to bless

Goal S etting 101

2 Replies

For years I’ve been a salesman

And done quite well indeed

They say that setting lofty goals

Can bring success to me

 

So I have always set my sights

On goals hard to attain

It makes me work much harder

Until that goal I’ve gained

 

But lofty goals are on thing

When they reach for worldly gain

I also  need to set my sights

On goals that don’t bring fame

 

Love my fellow Christian

And even more the lost

Bring joy to all I meet

Leave peace at all costs

 

Never say an unkind word

Never criticize

Be a friend to all around

Until the day I die

 

These are goals that I should have

Every single day

So set your sights on lofty things

And be a friend today.

Don’t Get Burned

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

Who’s Your Hero?

2 Replies

Would you rather have a hero

Whose skill was off the charts

He’d wow you with his game

He’d wow you as a star

But this hero only showed up

On this earth, and not near you

And the length of time he lived

Was just about as long as you

OR

Would you rather have a hero

Who died do give you life

And one that would be with you

Until the end of time

He will hear your every prayer

And walk beside you every day

Jesus is the hero

That I choose for all my days

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

I Fixed My Thinking!

2 Replies

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

Glad Your Still Reading

4 Replies

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

Not like a Hot Dog

2 Replies

I am a lover of hot dogs

Mustard and relish on top

They taste oh so good

A wonderful food

Three with the buns is enough

 

But when it comes to my soul

Only Jesus can satisfy

Nothing to garnish

Like mustard or relish

Just His precious grace gives me life

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
