Charity, The Pure Love of Christ

Charity, the pure love of Christ can only come from the heart,We cannot love with our mind more purely than our inner part.To obtain this pure love of Christ, we must unto the Father pray,With all the energy of our hearts so that charity might stay. “Men’s hearts shall fail them” is what the scripturesContinue reading “Charity, The Pure Love of Christ”

The Character of Christ

The Character of Christ is pure love undefiled for all mankind,He focused outward to heal the sick, and all wounds he did bind.The deaf did hear, the blind did see, the lame did walk, the mute talked,The daily building of all he taught as the land of Galilee he walked. No mortal man could haveContinue reading “The Character of Christ”

Centered In Christ

Each day I must decide anew that Christ is my true center,Will I plead with the Father and allow His spirit to enter?Will I place mortal limitations on His trust and belief in me?Do I believe in Him enough to trust that He believes in me? That He is a changing God, and will notContinue reading “Centered In Christ”

As a Man Thinketh

As a man thinketh in his heart so is he,The mind is the natural man he can see.The heart is the spiritual center of thought,For these are words that the Savior taught.

When Trials Abound

When my daily dose of medicine tastes bitter to the taste,When pain and suffering cause prayers to be made in haste,When sickness or disease ravishes my body beyond my will,I will turn my heart and send my prayers to the Father still.

Led by His Hand

How provident, how divine has been this nation a land of freedom,Where God has demanded that we serve him and build His kingdom.Where protection and safety abide when we follow Him and His word.When we no longer choose to serve Him, His voice cannot be heard. Learning from the annuls of history should endear ourContinue reading “Led by His Hand”

Open My Heart

As I take the holy Sacrament, open dear Lord my heart,Help me repent and cleanse with thy blood my inner part.Heal me as I take the bread an emblem of thy torn flesh,Make me whole, bind up my wounds, my resolve refresh. Take my heart from its current state, hardened and closed,Give me a newContinue reading “Open My Heart”

What Matters Most?

The pride of the world has taken hold of the hearts of mankind,For the love of substance and money has warped the human mind.Fine apparel, and adorning shrines unto ourselves above all,Leaving the poor, sick, needy, destitute, hungry in vain to call. How do we turn our hearts away from that rust that does canker,AndContinue reading “What Matters Most?”
