My home...my witness

It's in my home that my life must count,

'Coz here is the true test of my faith.

Proved through works of patience and love

When all sorts creeps onto my plate.

One never knows what a day will hold

Joy, fun, laughter or trials untold.

But how I cope helps my family see

If Jesus is real and He lives through me.

So give me the love that I need, dear Lord

To be like You in deed and word

May my light so shine in this place called home

So Father in heaven will all the glory own.

                    

Please make me more like Jesus today! Amen.

Which Truth is more real?

Is Truth asleep in the back of your boat?
Are the waves in your life riding high?
Are you overwhelmed by the storm out there?
Do you run to Jesus and desperately cry...
Lord, don't You care, see me tossing around
Not a hope, only fear in my heart abounds
Wake up, Jesus, do Your thing right here
This storm overwhelms, drowning me in tears.


He opens His eyes, looks around and smiles
Child, didn't I say we're going to the other side?
What do you believe, what I say or what you see?
Has the truth of your situation become bigger than Me?
I am the Truth, not the truth of your storm
Have faith in Me, and you will carry on.
Father's Word is Truth, it will set you free
If that's too hard - I'm the Truth, just believe in Me!

O death, you have no sting!!

Life is an inevitable race…

At birth we begin, at death finish

Birth is exciting but death not so

For birth we prepare, death we try to ignore

We welcome birth, but never death…

Why so?

If death is our inevitable destiny

Why don’t we want to face it?

If death is our most certain exit

Why do we fear to embrace it?

It’ll be so much easier if we do…

To cross the line when life is through

If we live each day staring death in the face,

We’ll live better lives, run a better race!

So think about it from here on…

‘Will it be today?’ ask every morn.

When you do this you will soon find

The fear of death is left far behind.

Each day becomes fresher, fuller, yes!

Than when dodging death and its imagined mess

Life becomes a pleasure then

When death is part of life, Amen!

Make each day a Masterpiece for the Master!

No one’s promised tomorrow

All we have is today!

To be light and salt for Father

While on earth we stay.

We don’t live here, remember?

Heaven’s our permanent abode

So hold lightly to earthly belongings

Or sink with their heavy load.

With hearts fixed firmly on heaven

And feet staying put on the ground

There’s only on way to please Him

Grace and Truth in our lives should abound.

Grace for the sinner, though not for the sin

Truth to live holy and souls to win

Both Jesus fleshed out to exemplify

That we can live like Him if we choose to die

Die to the sin that so easily besets us

Die to the soulish realm of our needs

Live unto Father with His Word as our anchor

Only make choices as His Spirit leads

Stay close to Jesus each step of the way

‘Coz no one’s promised tomorrow

All we have is today!

Good Friday...What a Name!!

Good Friday, what a name!
The day Jesus was put to shame
For love He came, for love He gave
All He had, went to the grave
Forever sealed my future there
Showed His love, undying care
Buried there was all my sin
My grief, my pain, my rot within
He took my wage n set me free
To be with Him eternally
