Dear Hearer

Do you think your okay? do you have a need unknown to even you? does the world close in on you and do you feel like it's falling all around you? I mustn't let you see me cry for you, I must turn away so you wont hear my tear drops fall, or see the pain in my eyes and feel the ache in my heart. You've heard all the stories that are told everyday, all the make believe and fantasies, everything you want to hear but not what you must. God forbid that I should think thier was something I could do to block you from this cold, cruel hearted world. I used to think I was self sufficient and I could make a difference in someone's life; but I destroyed my own. The greatest love story ever told or ever known to man, is that Christ Jesus loves eternally. He became as unto man, yet without sin, He grew up in this world and walked among men. Served His father above while serving men below, performed the greatest service. He died for His! He gave His life for me that I might live, and rose justified that I am bound in His eternity. The lost He came to save and secure in Himself forever and ever and ever, a salvation unbound by self and sin. He bore my blame and suffered just for me! Did He for you? I wont' make it easy for you, I won't tell you everythings okay, I won't lie to you, I won't tell you what you want to hear but only what you must. I'm busting out of silence, God's grace is strongest, instead of taking I am giving and if it breaks your heart, I only pray God mends it because I can't. When God touches you, I know you won't run, turn or walk away, you won't be able too! You won't pretend that everything's okay or that you have no need at all. God will be all you need, His love will keep you strong, In Him you will abide and will have eternal rest. A meaning to your life, and all because of Him... Before almighty God, my saviour first of all, I am bowed and praying for thee; for without Him you will not live! In Christ alone, Mercy Vessel (c) Rosemarie Schrock sept. 26,2007
