Call Out To Me

Call out to Me Hungry, thirsty, worried. That’s what I am Reaching out, longing and pleading. Lost in a world of darkness. Theres a penlight rolling around The batteries are flat. Too broke to buy new ones. Fumbling in the dark. Matches, they are damp and the flint won’t work. A candle can’t be lit without a light. Me thinks, lighter! Darn, no gas……….. Maybe if I get up it might help! Just take a few steps with hands outstretched…. Just maybe ill find a door! Yes, there is a handle, all I have to do is open it! Jesus is waiting, Waiting for you to open the door. He has the light that you are looking for!!! It is an eternal light that won’t be blown out Just reach out Jesus is waiting………………….. By Maxie Macdonald "It is the Lord who goes before you. He will be with you; he will not fail you or forsake you. Do not fear or be dismayed." -Deuteronomy 31:8 "Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all comprehension, shall guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus." -Philippians 4:6-7 "When the righteous cry for help, the Lord hears, and rescues them from all their troubles." -Psalm 34:17
