Having A Godly Appetite...

Having a Godly Appetite…


 


“Bodily exercise profits little.”


“Godliness is profitable unto all things.”


I think very few realize the victory,


this truth of God brings.


 


Scripture also tells us “whatever we sow.”


 “We shall also reap.”


Sin comes with a cost… 


And the price is not cheap!


 


“What profits a man if he gains


the world and loses his soul?”


What is your ambition in life? 


What is really your goal?


 


Do you want to live a life entangled


in worry, defeat and despair?


I’m here to tell you that Jesus


 loves you and he does care!


 


This world can drag you down


and cause you much shame.


Isn’t it time you reach out to Jesus? 


And call on his name?


 


He’s the reason we can have


an abundant life each day of the week.


It’s the Holy Spirit and God's word


 you need to daily seek


 


Only Jesus can bring joy and


 nourishment to your soul!


Allow his goodness to enrich you


and to make you whole!


 


May there be an appetite for Godly living


in what you do and say…


He can change your life and make you


 BRAND NEW today!

About the Poet
I and my wife have 4 grown children and currently live in the Pacific Northwest. I've spent much of my life doing volunteer work in the food distribution for the needy among local churches. Many of the poems I've written are a reflection of times of adversity as a reminder of God's love and faithfulness. I've found many opportunities to share my poems with those who are hurting and discouraged. I'm thankful for the reports of many of the poems touching people's lives. I hope that the poems included on Wordchimes will touch and bless your life too!
