Let's Reach Lost Souls For Jesus!

Let’s Reach Lost Souls For Jesus!



 



Isn't it time we stop pretending?



Let’s focus on the cross



and start remembering…



 



Remembering why...  on Sunday,



 we come to one place.



As an expression of God's



 love and grace.



 



We must reach beyond



 our four walls.



Even if it takes us to homes 



or shopping malls.



 



If we don't reach out beyond



 our church building.



What kind of example



 for Christ are we giving?



 



We must step beyond



 our "cliques."



Let’s reach the lost,



the needy and the sick.



 



We must start now, with no delay!



Do we really believe Christ



could come today?



 



We're all called to be



 "fishers of men."



Through us, will others



 be born again?



 



The time is short.



 Christ' coming is at hand.



We must preach the gospel



throughout the land.



 



The harvest is ready. 



The laborers are few.



What, for Christ' sake, 



are you going to do?

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!
