If Jesus Loves ~

If Jesus loves the sparrows,
flying high in the sky . . .
you can be sure He loves
the likes of you and I.

For, if He provides for them,
He will for us too . . .
all we need to do is ask
then watch for what He’ll do.

If, Jesus loves the sparrows,
that He won’t let them fall
we can rest assured . . .
He’ll be there when we call.

For, if He will save them,
He too will save us . . .
all we need to do is to put
in Him all our faith and trust.

If Jesus loves the sparrows,
we have nothing to fear
for we are more valuable . . .
and are to Him more dear!

~~~~~~~~

Luke 12:6-7

Are not five sparrows sold
for two farthings, and not one
of them is forgotten before God?

But even the very hairs of your
head are all numbered.
Fear not therefore: ye are of more
value than many sparrows.

To Know God Is To Love Him ~

To know God is to love Him,
with total devotion . . .
it’s more than just going
through insincere motions.

It’s with all of your heart,
your soul and your mind
not just with words
that are lukewarmly kind.

To love God is to trust Him,
to hunger and thirst
to put His kingdom
into your life first.

It’s knowing His will,
and His ways following
it’s Jesus’ life you find
that you are shadowing.

To love God is to praise Him,
with every inch of your being
for to love and to know Him
is adoration freeing!

Matthew 22:37

Jesus said unto him,
Thou shalt love the Lord thy God

The Lifter Of My Head ~

When my head,
is weighted down
from the worries
that come around.

I turn my face,
to my Father above
and He lifts me up
in His amazing love.

When my heart,
is feeling stressed
and pressure builds
in my beating chest.

I turn my eyes,
to my Lord and Savior
and He blesses me
with His uplifting favor.

When I am feeling,
down in the dumps
the One who lifts me up . . .
into me more faith pumps!

Love Came to Win ~

Love came to conquer,
Love came to deploy
mercy and grace . . .
so sin it could destroy.

Love came to stop,
the adulterer and murderer
the thug and the thief
the blasphemous and perjurer.

Love came to defeat,
the back-biter and gossiper
the arrogant and the conceited
the prideful ego worshiper.

Love came to overpower,
the rebellious and greedy
the contentiously and sordid
the belligerent and seedy.

Love came to conquer,
every form of sin
Love came to save . . .
Love came to win!

Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards,
nor revilers, nor extortioners,
shall inherit the kingdom of God.

A Love To Be Treasured ~

I once relied on people,
to bring to me pleasure
but they couldn’t convey
love that I could treasure.

For, their love was conditional,
it came at a steep cost
and now I can understand
why I was helplessly lost.

I thought if I set my sights,
on the things of this world
that everlasting happiness
I would be able to unfurl.

But, they soon corroded,
and all turned into rust
that is why it’s only God
in whom I now put my trust.

For His love is a love,
to truly be treasured
for it unconditional . . .
and cannot be measured!

God Loves Us ~

We pick the daisy’s petals,

we wish upon a star . . .
hoping our dreams are caught.

We rub a rabbit’s foot,
hoping love comes our way
we kiss a toad in hopes . . .
it turns into a prince one day.

We toss a penny in a well,
wishing love will finally come
we cross our fingers in hope
our heart-strings it will strum.

We look for the golden key,
to open our heart’s door
we seek the rainbow’s end
hoping true love we will score.

We pick the daisy’s petals,
to see if we’re loved or not
but, we know God loves us . . .

Woven ~

He took two threads of love,
wove me in the womb
covered me with a tapestry
that was made upon His loom.

He did the fine needlework,
of all the fibers of my frame
He skillfully sewed us together
so our image would be the same.

He embroidered in my soul,
the desire to know His will
then interlaced us together
with the Holy Spirit’s seal.

He stitched so intricately,
all the details inside of me
so that the fabric of His life
the unwoven eye could see.

He held the needle in His hand,
and used love as His thread . . .
He formed me in the womb
so to Him I’d be forever led!

The Greatest Love Letter Ever~

For God so loves the world,
He gave to all His only Son
who came to mend and heal
the heart and soul of everyone.

It doesn’t matter your race,
or the color of your skin
Jesus wants to forgive you
and cleanse you from your sin.

You may be rich and happy,
you may be poor and weak
but we’re all bankrupt
if His grace we do not seek.

You may be blind or deaf,
but that won’t stand in His way
for He came to teach and show
how sin causes death and decay.

You may be a thief or murderer,
an idolater or an oppressor
but that won’t stop His promise
to set free every transgressor.

It doesn’t matter your offense,
to Him all sin is the same
what matters most to Jesus
is to believe in His name.

For God so loves the world,
He gave to us His only Son
and there is no greater . . .
love letter sent from anyone!

Like A Dewdrop ~

God’s love is like a dewdrop,
that glistens in the sun
glowing in the warmth
from the light of His Son.

It’s a breath of fresh air,
full of the fragrance of spring
filling up the senses
with the beauty that it brings.

It’s as sturdy as an oak,
as solid as a Rock
firmly holding onto those
who gather as His flock.

It’s a taste of pure heaven,
a piece of pleasure and delight
to savor in the morning hours
and enjoy throughout the night.

It’s as straight as an arrow,
knowing its intended mark
aiming for those who wander
to have a change of heart.

It’s as boundless as the ocean,
an endless mountain stream
flowing with living waters
that has no edge or seam.

God’s love is gentle as a Lamb,
so tender and so calm
for it brings comfort to the soul
just like the soothing of a balm!

I am the One who you feel
stirring up deep inside.

The Depth Of God’s Love ~

Have you considered,
God’s love and it’s depth
have you thought about
its profound breadth?

Do you know how deep,
it goes down for you . . .
do you ever think about
what without it you’d do?

Do you comprehend,
the deepness of God’s love
have you surrendered your will
for your Father’s above?

Have you marveled over,
how God loves everyone
have you figured out
Your own need for His Son?

Have you ever considered,
God’s love fathomless
do you know for you . . .
it is a love bottomless?

~~~~~~~~

Ephesians 3:18 -19

May be able to comprehend
with all saints what is the breadth,
and length, and depth, and height;

And to know the love of Christ,
which passeth knowledge, that
ye might be filled with all the
fulness of God.

Romans 5:8

But God commendeth
his love toward us, in that,
while we were yet sinners,
Christ died for us.

The Breadth Of God’s Grace ~

Do you know the breadth,
of God’s love for you
do you know the magnitude
of what Jesus went through?

Have you considered,
the scope of God’s grace
has your heart fully . . .
the richness of it embraced?

Do you comprehend,
how it’s all-encompassing
can your mind appreciate
just how far it’s reaching?

Have you considered,
the awe of it’s broadness
has your soul grasped onto . . .
the scale of it vastness?

Do you ever consider,
can you really comprehend . . .
the depth of God’s love
and how faraway it extends?

~~~~~~~~

Ephesians 3:18 -19

May be able to comprehend
with all saints what is the breadth,
and length, and depth, and height;

And to know the love of Christ,
which passeth knowledge, that
ye might be filled with all the
fulness of God.

John 3:16

For God so loved the world,
that he gave his only begotten Son,
that whosoever believeth in him
should not perish,
but have everlasting life

Ephesians 2:8-9

For by grace are ye saved
through faith; and that not
of yourselves:
it is the gift of God:

Not of works, lest any
man should boast.
