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

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
His Gentle Whisper
In the stillness of the moment,As I sit here in the silence,I am talking with my Savior,And I’m listening for His kindness.

As He tenderly instructs me,In what He is all … Continue reading His Gentle Whisper

Have you given thought to your life –To why you were even born?Have you thought about your purpose?Or is your purpose now forlorn?

When Thoughts Trouble
I pray to the Lord when thoughts trouble my mind.I put my trust in Him. Then, peace I do find.I have no control over what others do.They all have the freedom to others subdue. It pains me to watch how some lie and they trick.Their plans are so sneaky. Their words are so slick.They hate … Continue reading When Thoughts Trouble
