Jesus Offers The Best Way to Live!



 



There’s many who believe



 They are most "fortunate."



By living the kind of life



 they call; "alternate."



 



Some try to talk others into



 "choosing:" this kind of life too.



When reading scripture...  They ask;



 "why not bend the rules?"



 



They sin before my



God ever so blatant.



When it comes to his word... 



I don't want to be "complacent."



 



The holy life Jesus offers is the best



one could ever live.



It comes from God's grace



And his power to forgive!



 



If you want the most ultimate life,



 one could ever find...



It comes from following Jesus! 



And leaving everything behind!



 



The life you'll find in Christ,



will bring a Godly abundance.



In his wondrous mercy, will your life



 find true substance!



 



There's "no closet to come out of."



 When loving him.



It's a matter of leaving your old life... 



And being BORN AGAIN!



 



Allow Jesus to overfill you with his



blessings beyond measure.



Only in him...  Will you find true love



and everlasting treasure

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!
