The Christian Life

The Christian life is the better life —
No, the Christian life is the best.
It gives you Someone to hold on to,
The only One Who can give you rest.

The Christian life is the only life
That gives you the strength to go on —
Someone in front, leading the way,
Gently guiding ‘till your battle is won.

The Christian life is full of hope,
And when life is over on earth,
The Christian life was designed to go on
Forever – the reward for earthly rebirth.

The Christian life offers atonement for sins.
There's nothing else a Christian need do
Than confess in his heart and sincerely repent
Of his sins, and to just follow through.

The Christian life requires much,
But I hear the others ask more,
And our Creator loves us no matter what,
Even if you fall in your faith and
temporarily close the door.

The reason for this is the Christian life
Never does desert it's own,
God's word is written right on our hearts,
And He welcomes you at the foot of His throne.

In other words, if you need to talk
The Spirit of God hears you day and night,
His Spirit becomes part of your soul
The moment you step into His Light
.

Is This How You See God?

"I'll call You when I need You, Lord,
So You can just relax awhile;
I'll let You know when You can help,
Just don't mess up my lifestyle.

"I don't need Your help right now, Lord,
I can handle this on my own;
If I need Your advice, dear God,
I'll call You on my cell phone.

"You can help somebody else now,
Who needs You more than I;
If I need Your intervention, Lord,
I'll just look up at the sky."

Is this the way you think of God?
Is this the way that you survive?
Do you just call Him when times are bad?
If so, you're more dead than you're alive.

God wants His children, everyone,
To call on His strength each day,
To build a strong relationship —
Intimate in every way.

He made you – there is not a part
Of you He doesn't know or see.
Don't wait 'till life becomes unbearable;
Walk with Him for your maturity,

God's Guiding Hand

It's very strange how things can change,
How God can somehow rearrange
Our lives, to fit His Purpose and His Plan.
We work and live for Him each day,
We want to honor and obey,
So we can lead souls to God all that we can.

 

Our Father listens with fine tuned ears
To all our worries and our fears,
And He's faithful to His Word; He'll never fail.
He tends to all our grief and pain,
By the bright and crimson stain,
That He left upon The Cross when He travailed.
