Crossing Over

In my youth I visited Canada many times

On family vacations

Crossing the border was easy

No hassles, no problem

 

As an adult, I visited Mexico

Cancun to be precise

We flew, so went through customs

At he airport, easy as pie!

 

These border crossings were on this earth

And there were many ways to do it

But the border crossing to heaven

Has one way

Jesus.

 

In you want to cross that border

So heaven will be your reward

Then call on the name

The precious name

The only way

The truth

And he life

Jesus, the Lamb slain for you.

Now I Know

I once though God was far away

And did not care for me

I lived my life for just myself

I  thought I was so free

 

But then I came to realize

That sin had kept me bound

The freedom that I thought I had

Was nowhere to be found

 

So I gave my life to Jesus

Because He died for me

And now I know He cares for me

And He has set me free!

The Way is Now Open

Man once lived in a garden

That was pure and full of life

They had their choice of fruit

And berries brought delight

 

But one tree was forbidden

The tree of knowledge called

Good and evil it would show them

But God said don;t eat at all

 

But man was way to curious

And he ate forbidden fruit

So God blocked the way to life

From the garden man did go

 

Generations later

Jesus came to die

He’s the only way

To eternal life

 

The tree of life is open

To all who call on Him

So open up your heart

And ask Him to come in.

The Road Less Traveled

I’m not one to take a big chance

Or go out on a limb

Or venture into unknown waters

 

I tend to take the road more traveled

One that I know

That i’m comfortable with

That I’ve traveled before

 

I was at home in my unbelief once

Easy life down an easy road

No responsibility

No worries

 

Then I learned that road went

Where I did not want to go

It was a road well traveled

Going the wrong way

 

I heard about another road

One that took daring to travel

It led the right way

And it was much less traveled

 

I decided to choose the less traveled road

I accepted Jesus Christ

As Lord and Savior

Now I am on the right road

Won’t you come along with me?

 

 

In response to the daily prompt Daring

A Brand New Me

The Pharisees knew the law

And they all looked good

Dressed in holy garb

Prayer fully they stood

But Jesus looked inside of them

Beneath the pure facade

And saw the tomb that was inside

And told them it must fade

 

I was once a Pharisee

Everyone thought I had it good

But inside my mind and heart

I was full of bad, not good

But Jesus loved me so much

He came and rescued me

Cleaned me up and set me straight

Now I am a brand new me!

 

 

 

In response to the daily prompt Facade

Are You Finished?

sowing-gospel-seeds

 

Are you finished telling me that you don’t want to hear

About the love of Jesus, the friend I love so dear?

How He died to take your place so that you won;t have to fear

Where you will up up for eternity?

 

Well, I’m sorry, but I really have to ignore your request

Because i am unfinished in showing how your blessed

So I will keep on planting seeds whenever I assess

That you need Jesus just as much as me

 

He died for you, and took your sin

He provided peace and joy within

And one day you can enter in

To heaven’s wondrous doors

 

So won’t you come to him today

And He will wipe your sin away

He’ll brighten up your darkest day

With His wondrous love

More Than Enough

This one thing I know

Is that God always bestows

His gifts to all of those

Who love His son

The list s oh so long

Of gifts that now belong

To those who now belong

To Jesus Christ, God’s son

 

His love and His forgiveness

His joy and His sweet peace

His mercy and His grace

His hope and healing too

His deliverance and love

His Spirit and Eternal Life

The list goes on and on

Because He’s generous to us

 

He gives more than enough

To show us His strong love

He’ll always be right there

To hear my every prayer

Crossing Over

I was drowning

A mountain of sin  encompassed me

And I had no way out

Then I heard about Jesus

And His love for me

And His sacrifice to take away

my sin

And I took the jump

From sinner to saint

From sorrow to joy

From turmoil to peace

From doubt to faith

From worry to hope

From guilty to forgiven

From Hell to Heaven

Crossing over was easy

Won’t you take the jump?

What is Your Passion

Our world has turned love

Into lust

And it is called passion

But passion is so much more

More than lust

More than emotion

More than a desire or need

Passion is what you pour your heart into

Your life into

Your soul  into

Your mind into

Your strength into

The Word says

Love the Lord your God

with all your heart

And all your mind

And all your soul

And all your strength

In other words

Be passionate about Jesus

 

 

 

In response to the daily prompt Passionate

In One Piece

My life was out of control

Sin abounded

Trouble lurked on every side

Emotions were fragile

Mind wandered endlessly

 

I felt as if I was falling apart

Piece by piece

 

But then

A friend

Introduced me to

His friend

Whose name us Jesus

 

He rook all my broken pieces

Put them together in His love

And now I feel whole again

 

One piece

I have peace

In Jesus
