I Once Knew a Man Who Did Things His Family Didn'T Understand

I once Knew a man who thought "things would get better." He had children and a wife. But soon left her. He met someone who "captivated his eyes." Having an appetite for her "beauty." and lies. His wife loved God and the kids with all of her heart. "How could this happen?" This question "ripped her apart." As a family. They went to church... and did their "Sunday best." How could this "happy" family turn into such a mess? Temptation can happen to anyone. Rich or poor. Be careful wha you allow to enter your heart's door. Regardless of whether you've been a "Christian" for "20 years..." One shameful act can cause heartache and tears. What God has given to you... Let no one take way. No matter what others think... Or what they might say. Stay true to God. You'll be glad you did! His love and joy will bless you each day that you live! This saviour is HERE NOW! And will never leave you alone! Allow HIM to bring peace and love to your troubled home! By Jim Pemberton 06/14/09
