Don't Rob Yourself Of The Opportuni
Viewed Last 24 Hours: 1 time

Don't Rob Yourself Of The Opportunity 

Don't rob yourself of the opportunity
To know the God of the world in the which you exist
And leave off with not knowing of His love
And of not knowing of the Holy Spirit's benefit
For you are encompassed about with a great cloud of witnesses 
Who are watching you from afar
And are wondering for the life of them
Your general lack of interest thus far...

Here you are breathing with your God given breath 
Yet you seldom give that a thought
And Satan loves it when you fall into that habitual habit
And unfortunately he loves it a lot
But just consider this wonder of wonders
That the God who made both darkness and light
Is anxiously awaiting on your thoughts towards Him
For it would be to Him of chief delight...

For the greatest recognition that a man can have
Is that he is fearfully and wonderfully made
And the good Lord is patient in that cause
Yet His plans for your future are laid
But there are two necessary ingredients 
To help you in that cause
One is faith and the other is prayer
They will lead you to the Cross...

For praise God there is no other name
His tops all the rest in the world
For in and through all that Jesus endured
His character remained wholesome and pure
Yes praise God there still is grace
Hallelujah there is grace
And when you're hankering to find out the truth of the matter
You will find God's amazing grace...!!!

Hallelujah what a Saviour!

About the Poet
I came to know the Lord as my personal Saviour in January of 1972. I was married on Oct 21,1966 to my wife Linda who also loves the Lord. We have ten children and now twenty-four grand children. In Aug 2012 we got the announcement of the birth of our first GREAT grand child (a baby girl). I was thrilled to find others of like precious faith and belief in Jesus Christ. Hallelujah! What a Savior! I am presently living in Champion, Alberta, Canada but we are originally from Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario, Canada. That is where the poem Canadian Tribute to America was birthed. One Sunday as I walked across the city on my way to church I came to the top of a hill and looked across at Sault Ste. Marie, Michigan. After watching the events of the Sept 11 tragedy it was weighing on my heart and mind and the Lord gave me these words. We came to Calgary and when my oldest daughter saw this poem she said, �Dad, what�s this?� and I said a poem and she replied �Dad, that�s not a poem , that�s a song� and she then went to the piano and began to sing and play it. The result of which turned into a song entitled, A Canadian Tribute to America which she recorded on CD. garyjamessmith2005@yahoo.ca
