There's a Light In That House

So many lives are so very thankful for that lighthouse, they saw way ahead it was so dark on that night long ago the only light they could see they said But as one looks more at this light it will shine all the brighter glow for its penetrating effect upon you takes you by the hand really slow It shines right into your heart showing up all your dirt and grime so points to a real deep cleanser go and be cleansed while there's time This cleanser knows all about you knows what you need exactly true which is his deep cleansing blood so to purify you all the way through Looking back on what you saw there's a light in that house that light kept you in its sight to lead you to the manna house (Just some thoughts of the importance of a lighthouse and the many lives it's saved).

It reminds me of the song, “The Lighthouse”. We need to trust the light of Christ within us to guide us through life. I thoroughly enjoyed your poem!

This reminds me of the famous picture of Jesus knocking at a door. A woman asked me once whose door that was. I looked at her and said,"It's your door. Jesus is a gentleman. He knocks and asks to be let in. The devil is a pushy sort and just pushes his way in and then you have to push him out." Love this my friend. God Bless, JB
