Sticky Note From God ~10.08.21~

1 John 1:8-10

Stubborn To The Bone ~

We’re all like sheep,
stubborn to the bone
to our waywardness
we are severely prone.

But our Good Shepherd,
finds us when we roam
and with His rod
brings us back home.

We’re all like sheep,
overly obstinate
we all have strayed
no matter the continent.

But our Good Shepherd,
will find each of us
and with His staff
teach us how to trust.

We are all like sheep,
our roaming is unending
but our Good Shepherd
love is unrelenting!

~~~~~~~~

Isaiah 53:6

All we like sheep
have gone astray;
we have turned every one
to his own way;
and the Lord hath laid
on him the iniquity of us all.

Sticky Note From God~ 07.02.19~

No One Is Perfect ~

No one is perfect,
all have flaws
all need to obey
God’s ten laws.

All have sinned,
no one is undefiled
all need to be
by Jesus justified.

All have erred,
no one is pure
all need Jesus
their heart to cure.

All have wandered,
no one is yielding
all need Jesus
His Spirit’s sealing.

No one is perfect,
all have missed the mark
all would be without Jesus
left out in the dark!

~~~~~~

Romans 3:23

“For all have sinned,
and come short of the
glory of God;”

I Came Into This World A Sinner ~

I came into the world,
with not one single thing
and when I go to see Jesus
there’s nothing I can bring.

For, my treasures on earth,
will rust from corruption
but, in heaven they’ve been
everlasting from conception.

I have a lot of stuff,
making my life comfortable
but, they are all to God . . .
worthless and corruptible.

For, God has for me,
eternal life as my treasure
where peace and joy
will flow without measure.

I came into this world,
as a sinner, but I will leave
as someone who in Jesus
has trusted and believed!

~~~~~~~

Matthew 6:19-21

“Lay not up for yourselves
treasures upon earth,
where moth and rust
doth corrupt,
and where thieves break
through and steal:

But lay up for yourselves
treasures in heaven,
where neither moth nor rust
doth corrupt, and where thieves
do not break through nor steal:

For where your treasure is,
there will your heart be also.”

No One’s Perfect ~

No one is perfect,
no, not one is good
nobody does what God
says that they should.

We all have gone,
off on our own
we are all like
sheep on the roam.

Wanderers we are,
drifters we be
tossed to and fro
on a faithless sea.

Everyone’s deprived,
all are sinful
to God’s way
not one is mindful.

No one is good,
not even one of us
that’s why in Jesus . . .
we must put our trust!

~~~~~~~

Isaiah 53:6

“All we like sheep
have gone astray;
we have turned
every one
to his own way;
and the Lord
hath laid on him
the iniquity
of us all.”

Forgiveness in the Son ~

It’s not that I don’t remember,
it’s just that I choose to forget
my life as I lived it . . .
before the day Jesus and I met.

It’s not that I can’t recall,
the places that I have been
but, I know it’s just the devil
who wants to visit my past sin.

It’s not that I don’t regret,
or feel the shame of disgrace
it’s just that I know I’m forgiven
because of Jesus’ awesome grace.

It’s not that I don’t consider,
my life before I was saved
it’s just that I don’t want to be
to my former days enslaved.

So, don’t throw in others faces,
the wrong things they have done
for, we’re all a bunch of sinners
needing to forgive every one!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Isaiah 38:17
King James Version

“Behold, for peace I had great bitterness:
but thou hast in love to my soul delivered
it from the pit of corruption:
for thou hast cast all my sins behind thy back.
