Jesus. The Way, the Truth, and the Life.
This poem reminds us that our job is to submit to His will and remain faithful ’til the end.
Sometimes it’s hard to know what God’s thinking. Our lives seem full of needless suffering and pain. We do all we can to please Him . . . yet, life remains hard. We don’t understand.
This poem reflects on God’s sovereignty as He guides and directs our lives. Our job is simply to submit to His will and remain faithful ’til the end.
A poem that speaks of the wonders of God’s Word. Is it gathering dust on your shelf?
It’s easy to let our Bible sit on the shelf and gather dust. I’ve been guilty of it.
But God’s Word contains life; it contains the message that God has for you and me. It tells of creation, the reason for living and the end of things.
Take some time to read it today and every day.
The Dusty Old Book (a poem by Belinda)
From Mr. Popular to drug addict to D.J. to Jesus – Sam’s amazing journey to Christ.
Another amazing story has recently hit our inbox.
Sam was an athlete in high school and college and enjoyed being popular and in the limelight. But as these situations often go, Sam didn’t become a professional athlete – instead he became a drug addict.
Find out how God brought someone into his life (like He did for me) to speak the truth to him and get him on the right track.
We all lose loved ones. Sometimes it’s cancer – sometimes a car wreck. It’s easy to question God in such times.
Karinne lost her mother to cancer. During the ordeal she became angry with God. Why had He taken her mother?
She soon discovered that God has ways of letting us know that He still cares about us, even when we’re struggling with life’s challenges. He often shows us His love in surprising ways.
Read Karinne’s testimony and be blessed.
God desires to interact intimately with us. And through Him, we can lead victorious lives – no matter what trials life may bring.
Sometimes, when we think we’re doing just fine, when we think we’ve got it all together – we fall flat on our faces. Then we either get up and do the same thing all over again, or we call on God to help us through.
This poem suggests a better way. Stay close to God all the time, through good and bad, and He’ll guide you and protect you every step of the way. God doesn’t want to be distant; He wants to interact with us and give us a life of victory.
This poem reminds us that God cares for our every need. He loves us and will see us through the painful trials of life.
I haven’t updated this blog for a while due to many things . . . first, my computer was out of commission for almost three weeks. Second, I was in Alaska fishing (and visiting with family) for about two weeks. So, there are my excuses. Now, on to the real reason for this post.
Melinda Lancaster writes some amazing poetry. She gave me permission to post poems from her site, so I have finally posted one. More will follow, you can be sure. This one is called “And God Cried.”
It’s a moving poem about how God cares deeply and personally for us. It reminds us that God doesn’t simply want to rule over us; He wants to be intimately involved with our lives. He wants to provide for all our needs. We can trust Him to be there when we’re in pain, alone, frightened . . . He loves us and this poem reminds us of that.
As Christians, should we think of ourselves as sinners? Or should we consider ourselves holy, blameless saints?
Sometimes you’ll hear a Christian say something like, “We’re all just a bunch of sinners.” I suppose one could consider it semantics, but we believe that viewing ourselves as “holy” and “blameless” and “set apart” is an integral part of conforming our minds to that image.
Here’s something else to consider. How does God view Christ-followers? Does the Bible really address it?
Tim tries to set out our view in the following article:
A poem reminding us that the Christian walk is not about rules; it’s about a relationship with the God of the Bible.
Mike’s latest submission reminds us that following Jesus is not about remembering a litany of rules. It’s about a relationship with the Jesus of the Bible.
Read Mike’s latest poem:
Did God harden Pharoah’s heart? And if He did, how is that fair?
It seems sort of unfair that God would harden Pharoah’s heart. The poor guy didn’t have a chance. If God pre-plans everything and he pre-planned Pharaoh to be evil, how is that fair? I suppose a better question would be . . .
My Brother the King takes the reader on a journey from creation to the present.
This beautifully crafted poem by Tim takes the reader on a journey from creation to the present.
It paints a vivid picture of Jesus Christ, our King, and how He unveiled His perfect plan – in order for us to be His friends and to spend eternity with Him.
