These Words I Write

In these words I seek God's Guidance to write I pray for many within it will cause a fight That maybe you are tired Of stumbling on your own path in the night Perhaps you do not like to attend church Maybe because of all the division Of the churches and within them Many years ago I was on the Mississippi river On a barge boat when the Lord changed me Jesus will come to you where you are To dwell within that you might have peace One may already be ready to hate For I seek to only help your fate Jesus did not come to comdem this world He came to give division from flesh That one might be born of the spirit Each one of us needs this rebirth Unless you are fine with this earth God does not dwell within others to please man But to bring light to the darkness And to show His love to all He puts His will inside one That they might be a vessel To help snatch one from death Before they escape there last breath This world hated Jesus without cause Because through love He showed there flaws For many I pray it will bring comfort For many times we feel like we are alone But broad is the highway to death Few is the way on the narrow path God's fire within will give you strength Your eyes have received new vision You will tune out the outside noise For your guidance comes from within And the words of life He left us To help one understand what This greatness is He has placed within To the closed eye His words are foolish But to the open eye and mind They reveal the mystery of the truth and life

To the deaf and blind God's words and actions cannot leave any impact. When we open our inner ears and eyes, we will realize how great He is. For that also, we need God's grace. The only consolation is that He has come in search of the missing lambs. Stephan, your words are so comforting !
