My life without Jesus Christ was going nowhere
really fast.  I was filled with fear and was even
afraid to drive on the freeway!  But, when He
came into my life, He has rid me of that dreadful
fear and filled my heart with His peace!
God bless.

The World Upside Down and Backwards One of the funniest things in an amusement park are the mirrors and the way your true image comes across but unfortunately without the Blood of Jesus applied to your life this is the way you and me look to God for without Him we are lost. We in the natural with a humanistic twist have tried to work out a clean and bloodless redemption plan but the Lords way was perfect in the price of His Son so how do we them match that do tell me if you can! This old world’s views since the fall are backwards and upside down if you please its ways, take all of you can get while the Bible says to get you must give and it says so not for us just to tease. A life without Jesus is upside down and definitely out of control going nowhere in the fast lane as there is no way to escape and one day all of us will have chosen where we will go. As I mentioned before so say I again we are backwards without Jesus as to how we are to view this life for when He arrives on our dreadful lowly scene if you will allow Him to, He will rid your life of peace stealing strife. As a babe new born in our world one of the first words a new baby will learn to speak is No! they answer no to even good and wonderful things that would have brought to their little face an awesome glow. The central theme and message to this poem was meant for this one fact a life without Jesus, the Author of life is upside down and backwards yet its needless to stay that way when He is wanting and welcoming to call you back!

Even in Amusement Parks Women whose lives have been touched by God and Jesus profess them taking honest or deliberate advantage of their decorative pieces that have caricatured mankind.
