Who can fully comprehend,
God’s love that is world-wide
who can grasp the call . . .
to come and be His bride?
Who can fully understand,
a love that is without end
who can figure out
having a eternal Friend?
Who can fully embrace,
love going into eternity
who can stretch their hearts
into this place of serenity?
Who can fully fathom,
love reaching deep within
who can see the real need
for forgiveness of their sin?
Who can fully comprehend,
the love God has for everyone?
Only those who can grasp it . . .
are the ones who love His Son!
~~~~~~~~
Ephesians 3:17-19
That Christ may dwell
in your hearts by faith;
that ye, being rooted
and grounded in love,
“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.

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!

2 Corinthians 13:11

Lord, thank You for today,
help me to use it wisely
let my faith in You . . .
shine ever so brightly.
Bring to me today,
a chance to give You glory
whether it be clear skies
or ones dark and stormy.
Let me use my gifts,
so others may truly see
the trust I have in You . . .
is because You dwell in me.
Give me the right words,
let them reveal and show
the many reason why . . .
I need and love You so.
Lord, thank You for today,
for another opportunity
to tell others all I know . . .
about my hope of eternity!

All the way home,
Jesus is leading me
right to His throne
He is taking me.
All I have to do,
is let Him take my hand
so He can bring me
into the promise land.
All the way home,
Jesus is guiding me
right to His Father
He is drawing me.
All I have to do,
is to continually abide
and He will keep me
eternally at His side.
All the way home,
Jesus is taking me . . .
all I have to do is believe
His grace has saved me!

myself; that where I am,
there ye may be also.

There is a race set,
before everyone of us
it’s one that we run . . .
because in God we trust.
It must be ran with a lot,
of patience and persistence
for narrow is the way
and long is the distance.
There is a race ongoing,
many ran it before
and we must win it . . .
to enter heaven’s door.
We must be willing to lay,
all of our sins aside
so that we can run it
with a faithful stride.
There is a race to finish,
it will take endurance
and the grace of Jesus
is our eternal insurance!
~~~~~~~~
Hebrews 12:1
Wherefore seeing we also are compassed
about with so great a cloud of witnesses,
let us lay aside every weight, and the sin
which doth so easily beset us, and let us
run with patience the race that is set before us.

I lift my eyes heavenward,
till I envision in my mind . . .
the glory that’s awaiting me
the day with Jesus I will be
My heart swells up with joy,
a chorus of praise begins
for all God is doing for me
till with the Lord I will be.
My spirit sings sweet melodies,
eternal peace they usher in
oh, the bliss that’s awaiting me
on the day with Christ I will be.
I feel the burning in my soul,
as my trust begins to flare
I know my hope will carry me
till with my Savior I will be.
I lift my eyes heavenward,
till I envision in my mind . . .
the day with Jesus I will be
all because He first loved me!

Lord, I can hardly wait,
for when my eyes take in
a place with no evil
nor any kind of sin.
To see the true joy,
beaming off each face
of those who believed
in Your saving grace.
Lord, I can hardly wait,
for when I can hear
the sound of all the saints
singing with holy fear.
My ears will not take in,
a sob or a cry of fright
there’ll only be sounds
of pure heavenly delight.
Oh, Lord I can’t wait,
for what is awaiting me
when the day comes . . .
with You we all will be!

Keep me focused on You Lord,
when going through the fire
keep my eyes straight on You
so I’ll know Your heart’s desire.
Keep me dedicated to You Lord,
when I’m full of dread and fear
keep me looking heavenward
so You can draw me near.
Keep me devoted to You Lord,
when the storm is raging on
keep my mind centered upward
so to Your will I can be drawn.
Keep me attuned to You Lord,
when everything’s falling apart
keep my faith horizontally intact
so You’ll always be in my heart.
Keep me focused on You Lord,
no matter what I’m going through
help me be to be fixated . . .
on the day I’ll be with you!

Lord, I know you have a bottle,
collecting all my tears . . .
from the pain and sorrow
I’ve had throughout the years.
They must be overflowing,
forming a river wide and deep
and I’m sure before my life ends
I’ll have more of them to weep.
Lord, I know You know my pain,
for You have suffered too
and I wonder if there’s a bottle
up in heaven just for You.
It must be gushing over,
with all the tears You’ve cried
over those who don’t believe
why for them You died.
Lord, I know one day our tears,
will forever stop and cease
and the river up in heaven
will flow with eternal peace!

Father, when I think of the things,
with Your fingers You have done
I stand in complete awe . . .
over each and every one.
When I ponder the heavens,
the vastness of the space above
I stand in total awe . . .
by the magnitude of Your love.
When I peer into the sky,
gaze upon the stars and moon
I stand in awaiting awe . . .
Jesus will come again soon.
When I reflect on the universe,
how endless it seems to be
I am in utter awe . . .
You even thought to create me.
Oh, Father when I consider,
all the things You have done
I stand in everlasting awe . . .
for the gift of Your Son!

One day this imperfect me,
will be finally complete
when my Lord and Savior
I’ll at last come to meet.
For when I get to heaven,
and see Him face to face
all my imperfection
will be erased by His grace.
My eyes will be wide open,
as His presence I take in
I will watch as I transform
to be like the One ~ without sin.
The fullness of His glory,
through me will finally glow
this flawed and broken me
again I will never know.
One day this imperfect person,
will be at last free . . .
when Jesus perfect image
takes over the likes of me!

In this, our worldly home,
there is misery and pain
we toil and we labor . . .
but, it’s all done in vain.
We fight off temptation,
do the best not to fail
for we know that satan
is always on our tail.
We have hunger pangs,
that can’t be satisfied
in a world where evil
each day is magnified.
We know on this earth,
there will be a lot of grief
but, its solution’s only bring
a false sense of relief.
In this, our worldly home,
there is so much daily pain
but, in our heavenly one . . .
sin’s curse will no longer reign!

There is nothing I can do,
no magic door to enter in
if I want to get to heaven
there’s no lottery I can win.
There’s nothing I can do,
no purchase to make my way
for there isn’t enough money
to compensate for my stay.
There is nothing I can do,
to reserve a room for me
none of my works on earth
comes with such a guarantee.
There is nothing I can do,
to enter into God’s kingdom
no way for me to earn
the access or the freedom.
There is nothing I can do,
for Jesus paid the full price
I believe He became for me . . .
the one and only sacrifice!

For God wishes not one,

If with all your heart,

On the path to perfection,
there will be a lot of bumps
obstacles to get over
with many terrifying jumps.
For we are challenged,
to keep to the narrow way
and we must remain sinless
if on it we’re to stay.
On the path to perfection,
there will be a lot of noise
plenty of outside confusion
demanding our inner poise.
For we will come across,
opposition of every kind
wanting to rid God . . .
from our hearts and minds.
On the path to perfection,
God wants us to stay . . .
so when we come to the end
we can be with Him one day!

You may have a nice home,
drive a luxury car
but, if you don’t know Jesus . . .
you won’t get very far.
You may make six figures,
vacation for weeks in Rome
but, if you don’t know Jesus . . .
you don’t have an eternal home.
You may have a big yacht,
sail around the high seas
but, if you don’t know Jesus . . .
paradise you will never see.
You may eat lobster and caviar,
dine out in the finest place
but, if you don’t know Jesus . . .
you’ll never understand His grace.
You may be rich and famous,
you name maybe well known
but, if you don’t know Jesus . . .
in heaven you will be unknown!

Mark 8:36
For what shall it profit a man,
if he shall gain the whole world,
and lose his own soul?
