Loving God Is More Than Words

Loving God Is More Than Words!

If I say I love God,
 yet refuse to listen…
Then his blessings in my life
 is what I’ll be missin.’

If I say I trust him, 
I’ve no reason to fear!.  
Because he loves me, and is always here!

If I say  I believe his
 word to be  true…
Then I ought to live the way
 Christ wants me to!

If I say I’ll daily 
give him 100 percent…
Then I need to humble myself
 and to him…  Repent!

If I say I’ll seek
 to serve one another…
Then I need to be there for
 my sister and brother!

If I say Jesus is truly
 the Lord of my life…
Then he will bless me,
 my kids and wife…

Why not say; “I invite you Jesus
 to come inside to live.?”
“I accept your blood and
 power to forgive!”

Won’t you say; “Here I am Jesus...”
  “Here I come!”
And experience the life-changing 
power of God’s risen son!

Christ says; “You that have burdens...”
  “I will give you rest…”
Living for Jesus is
 always the BEST!
