Christian brother, where are you?Christian sister, and you, too.What’s important? Do you know?Does it matter? Does it show? Your intentions, what are they?Read your Bible, kneel and pray?Have devotions here and there?Share the gospel anywhere? Some of you are quite sincere,Follow Jesus, have Him near.Hearts are given o’er to Christ.Now to sin NOT are enticed. … Continue reading What’s Important?

The Pain So Deep
The pain inside you Are you hurting deep inside,The pain so deep, and so you hideFrom others what is hurting you,Perhaps, because their love not true? You’ve been down this road beforeOf trusting others with your sore,And then to have them turn their backs,Since love for you they surely lack. Trusting others, it is hard,When … Continue reading The Pain So Deep

Danger’s Lurking
Danger’s lurking, humans squirreling,Minds are filled with garbage hurling,Life’s disaster going faster,Sin is now their Lord and Master. Open letter to the hurting,Sin is danger, don’t be flirting.Don’t escape in what is magicOr life can turn and be tragic. Time on earth not without limits,Time is ticking hours and minutes,No one knows the final hourWhen … Continue reading Danger’s Lurking
Religion vs Relationship
Religion is based in the teachings of man,In forms and traditions in which they now stand.Their customs, their idols, are what they now serve,And from their procedures they barely will swerve. The writings of man are the bibles they read,While God’s word, the Scriptures, they rarely will heed.For men tell nice stories that make them … Continue reading Religion vs Relationship
Nonsense, Nonsense
Nonsense, nonsense coming from their mouths,Raise their banners, raise them very loud,Bold in witness, that but not of God,Please the world and draw in their large crowds. “Win the world to us, but not to God,Please the crowds and make sure music’s loud,Tell some jokes, and have a new cartoon,Twist the Scriptures morning, night, and … Continue reading Nonsense, Nonsense
So We Would Worship Him
Jesus Christ, He died for all,Not so we could have a ball.Jesus in that manger lay,So we’d worship Him and pray. Jesus Christ, He came to earth,So in Him we’d have new birth.Jesus sacrificed for sin,So that we could live in Him. Jesus Christ, our only Lord,Gave us grace we can’t afford.Gift of God, God … Continue reading So We Would Worship Him
Be So Aware
Of Satan’s snare be so aware,And do not live without a care.He’ll wipe you right off of your feetAnd kick you down in deep defeat.He’s tricky, he is, there’s no doubt,He’ll give a one, two, then you’re out. So, put on armor that’s of God,Remain awake, without a nod.Walk in the light, and not the … Continue reading Be So Aware
Ministers of The Gospel
Ministers of The GospelTake heed, just so you know,You work for God, not for self.He’s the one who makes things grow.
