It is not enough to know about Jesus and what he did,It is more becoming the man of Christ as he bid.To become truly converted is not simply to know.But to earnestly strive to become as he did show. The sum total of our desires work against or for,Our desired outcome, as we surely chooseContinue reading “Becoming Converted”

Within the realm of darkness, I often feel for his hand,Seeking to uplift me as I plead and then demand.To find my path back to the safety of his home,As yet, I seek to wander more wherever I may roam. I often remember the feeling of his hand in mine,The prints of the nails inContinue reading “Pressing Forward”

When the challenges of life seem us to overwhelm,And Christ our Savior simply would be our helm.His call to serve him and walk with him each day,Allows us to abide with him as we walk in his way. His call to walk with him and find his peace each day,To abide with him and inContinue reading “Abide in Me”

I am blessed with peace when with faith I walk,Peace that allows me to hear when I knock.To stand and be counted a follower of the Lord,Brings hope and peace of means only he can afford. Feeling his spirit guiding each step along the path,Moving beyond the darkness of the tempter’s wrath.From sorrow, grief, andContinue reading “The Peace He Can Afford”

Trust in the LordMusic: JoAnna BurtonWords: David Maughan Verse 1. When it seems the world against me turned. And all the bridges I’ve built they have been burned. I find it hard to remember how I felt, before God I knelt.Placing trust in God in times of ease. But in challenges I’m difficult to please.Continue reading “Trust in the Lord(Song)”

Our lives are just a passing glimpse a day unto the Lord,We live each day longing for the next, the day we’ll follow his word.If life could spin a thousand webs of truth, we’d surely seek the right,Not waiting for the day to come, but toiling upward in the night. Who can see into theContinue reading “Wait Upon The Lord”

Watch with me, he asked his friends to pray,Be with me as I suffer and bleed today.Alone with his thoughts, and mortal pains,He worked out our salvation removing our stains. The garden sod absorbed the precious blood,An eternal witness that he gave his lifeblood.A willing recipient the garden had become,As the Savior determined to notContinue reading “Gethsemane’s Garden”

Fleeting time speeds beyond my reach,Walking at times alone with grief.Feeling the bounds, I set upon myself,Seeking inside alone for peace and relief. Belief alone sometimes is just not enough,There needs to be more than this is true.The nurturing effect of faith I need,To feed my soul when I am through. Building belief nurtured withContinue reading “Rescued”
