FED UP 2008-04-24 22:37:06 I’m fed up with the compromise
I always have to make
To be my cheery,Christian self
When everybody takes
Advantage of my docile self
As I fall into line
And do the things that others want
I act as if it’s fine.
But having toed the line so long
It’s time to make a change
And try to reassert myself
Maybe rearrange
The time to make a [...]
LEAVE IT 2008-04-27 22:33:45 Do you have a burden great
One for which you just can’t wait
Keep on pushing, causing strife
Trying to change a stubborn life
Into one who walks with God
Hoping they will give the nod
To a pressured altar call
That’s going to save them from the fall.
You are getting in God’s way
Playing saviour every day
Hand your burden up to He
Who’s [...]
FORGIVENESS 2008-04-27 11:50:18 One day a while back, a man, his heart heavy with grief, was walking in the woods. As he thought about his life this day, he knew many things were not right. He thought about those who had lied about him back when he had a job.His thoughts turned to those who had stolen his [...]
No title 2008-04-29 22:25:10 Screwed up like a ball
Protected by a covering
Afraid to share at all
Wound up by fear of change
A person can survive
Sitting on the outside
Looking at the beauty
Of what He’s doing today.
What’s the use of change
It only brings you problems
I’m perfect as I am
I do my best by Him
But there is something more
A loving kind of future
If [...]
THE COMING HARVEST 2008-05-01 12:45:14 There was once a spider who lived in a cornfield. He was a big spider and he had spun a beautiful web between the corn stalks. He got fat eating all the bugs that would get caught in his web. He liked his home and planned to stay there for the rest of his life.
One [...]
No title 2008-04-30 22:50:21 I am what I am, I am agreed
A prefab full of bits
Not necessarily in the right order
An airfix kind of kit
The Lord has been refining
And strained the toxins out
And I am now what I should be
I’m finally facing out.
Why should I be like other folk
I am unique, you see
And I am of a separate yolk
How [...]
No title 2008-05-01 22:31:55 A beam of light has found it’s way
Into the darkness that is me
And broken up the sullen state
That took a hold of all I be
The wilderness is where I was
Abandoned,lost and deep in shock
The Lord has raised me from the sand
And now I stand upon The Rock.
So even when we’ve lost our way
And fallen foul [...]
ONE DAY 2008-05-03 11:32:55 One day a man saw a old lady, stranded on the side of the road, but even in the dim light of day, he could see she needed help. So he pulled up in front of her Mercedes and got out. His Pontiac was still sputtering when he approached her.
Even with the smile on his [...]
REFINE ME 2008-05-05 02:47:49 I pray to You to give me strength,
To carry on with You,
Who gave up so much,just for me,
And made my life brand new,
Who has been with me,every step,
Along the narrow way,
It really is a miracle,
That I am here today.
For You have worked so hard on me,
Quite painfully at times,
And looking back, now,I can see,
The reasons [...]
QUILT 2008-05-05 22:50:01 AS I FACED MY MAKER AT THE LAST JUDGEMENT,
I KNELT BEFORE THE LORD ALONG WITH THE OTHER SOULS.
BEFORE EACH OF US LAID OUR LIVES LIKE THE SQUARES OF A QUILT IN MANY PILES; AN ANGEL SAT BEFORE EACH OF US SEWING OUT QUILT SQUARES TOGETHER INTO A TAPESTRY THAT IS OUR LIFE.
BUT AS MY ANGEL [...]
FENCE 2008-05-06 22:40:19 I see you’re sitting on the fence,
You’ve been there for quite a while,
The straining grimace on your face,
The absence of a trace of smile,
You can’t fall backwards,that’s a sin,
Forwards is a step too far,
Humanness is pulling strings,
Locked inside an endless jar.
Do you trust an unseen God?
Do you free fall into space?
Have you nothing left to [...]
LOOK WHO JESUS LOVES 2008-05-10 01:31:37 By Andrew Wommack
If you have listened to any of my teachings, you’ve heard me speak about the love of God. That’s what changed my life. The titles, subjects, and Scripture references of my albums are all different, but I’m always teaching about some aspect of God’s unconditional love.
I believe a true, experiential understanding of God’s [...]
LITTLE OLD LADY 2008-05-09 08:45:06 There was a little old lady, who every morning.
stepped onto her front
porch, raised her arms
to the sky, and shouted: ‘PRAISE THE LORD!’
One day an atheist moved into the house next door.
He became irritated at the little old lady .
Every morning he’d step onto his front porch after her and yell: ‘THERE
IS NO LORD!’
Time passed with [...]
THROWING DARTS 2008-05-12 22:32:14 A young lady was relating an experience that she had in a seminary class with her teacher, we’ll call Brother Smith. She said that Brother Smith was known for his elaborate object lessons.
This particular day when Sally walked into seminary she could tell they were in for another fun day. There was a big target [...]

When God speaks, His words are binding; they’re like an unbreakable contract.He always says exactly what He means, He never lies, and He never says, “Oops, I’ve changed my mind.”
Hebrews 1:3 says,
“Upholding all things by the word [...]
SECURITY 2008-05-13 22:33:01 What is our security
What do we lean against
A tidy nest egg in the bank
Our jobs and all our friends
The certainty of breakfast
And myriad other meals
All aid us in [...]
RESTORATION 2008-05-17 01:56:24 Peace has fallen on this person
In a static place, no less
It’s a lull before the storm breaks
Restoration time, I guess
To the state that He created
Undefiled by human touch
Like an onion, we’ve gained layers
Some a few, but many much.
Take a painting, sad and lifeless
Vibrant colours dulled by time
You can damage hidden beauty
As you scrub away the [...]
No title 2008-05-19 22:25:28 A match took place the other day
Between two sides of fate
It wasn’t on the tele
Cause they didn’t know the date
Eleven cranky demons
With satan in their goal
Were up against the Christians
With Jesus saving souls.
The game kicked off, the demons surged
And almost scored a goal
The Christians bound the inside left
Who tripped up on a mole
The holy brethren [...]
FAITH 2008-05-22 12:17:47 A group of scientists and botanists were exploring remote regions of the Alps in search of new species of flowers.
One day they noticed through binoculars a flower of such rarity and beauty that its value to science was incalculable. But it lay deep in a ravine with cliffs on both sides. To get the flower [...]
MARTHA 2008-05-21 22:40:04 Martha, you’re alarming Me
You’re just a blur of light
So busy doing things for Me
You cannot see your plight
While you’re dashing round the place
Intent on doing all
You haven’t time to hear My voice
When you, I softly call
You need to stop and rest in Me
And I will show you why
You’ve nowt to prove to anyone
You’re precious in [...]
HE DIDN’T SAY 2008-05-24 01:32:52 He didn’t say the rich would get
The first place in the queue
He didn’t say your entry fee
Was based on what you do
It’s better to be who you are
And come just as yourself
So cease from piling all your works
Upon your sagging shelf.
The poor, bereaved and meek of heart
Will be His chosen ones
For they have loved Him [...]
FAITH 2008-05-22 22:35:18 I’m standing on the precipice
I’m going to leave my shelf
And launch into the atmosphere
Cause I have died to self
I know there’s more to what I have
And I have reached the stage
Where I cannot be satisfied
By writing my own page.
The world has been my favourite place
It’s held me back from You
And it has taken all this [...]
DO YOU HAVE TIME 2008-05-31 11:04:55 God will get our attention one way or another.
The Master called my name one day because He needed someone to go.
I said “Lord, in my spare time, between school, spending time with my husband, working from 8 to 6, and trying to coordinate a program for my community to help our children do better, I [...]
THE OVERCROWDED CHURCH 2008-06-02 14:45:04 The two thousand member church was filled to overflowing capacity one Sunday morning. The preacher was ready to start the sermon when two men, dressed in long black coats and black hats entered thru the rear of the church.
One of the two men walked to the middle of the church while the other stayed at [...]
FORGIVE 2008-06-05 22:32:47 It’s clouding every minute
Of each and every day
I cannot get away from it
Even when I pray
This cloak of unforgiveness
Is shrouding everything
And though I know the answer
It’s continuing to cling
I know I should remember
With all my sins forgiven
That I should do the same in You
But all my rage is driven
By someones interference
In matters of my heart
Continuing [...]
ENCOURAGEMENT 2008-06-09 12:55:01 Then Peter got down
Then Peter got down out of the boat, walked on the water and came toward Jesus. But when he saw the wind, he was afraid and, beginning to sink, cried out, “Lord, save me!” Immediately Jesus reached out his hand and caught him.
“You of little faith,” he said, “why did you doubt?” [...]
TURTLE RECALL 2008-06-13 11:22:13 Not long ago I was on my way to an appointment when I spotted a turtle in the middle of the highway. The poor creature was somehow turned onto its back and was kicking and clawing in an effort to get back onto its feet. I couldn’t stand the thought of driving past, knowing this [...]

A BABY 2008-07-02 09:45:47 Pastor Robinson walked back and forth in his study, and then stood for a moment by the window. A light snowfall had whitened the world outside, but the pastor hardly noticed. His thoughts were with his people. He had been their pastor for three years. He had preached and prayed and had done all he [...]
