Where Is the Man? Reply

The  Man  you  seek  is  in  His  Father’s   house.  He  is  Jesus  Christ,  the  Son  of  God…

The   Son  of  God  has  felt  our  pain,
The  blood  He  shed  was  not  in  vain.
Christ  knew  our  fears,  the  tears  we’d  cry;
And  He  comforts  us  when  we  draw  nigh.

He  provides  for  us  in  time  of  need…
We  do  not  have  to  beg  or  plead.
His  example  leads  in  how  to  live,
Teaches  how  to  love  and  to  forgive.  

His  abiding  Word  feeds  our  souls,
And  brings  lost  sheep  into  His  fold.
Through  prayer,  He  taught  us  how  to  pray.
In  Matthew  5,  He  shows  the  way.

Christ,  seated  on  His  Father’s  right,
Will  soon  return  like  a  thief  in  the  night
and  take  us  to  mansions  in  Heaven  above,   
Where  forever  we’ll  praise  Him  and  sing  of  His  love,


Angela  Usher

Mary this is so true, Jesus and God are cheerful givers, and Jesus ave his life as a ransom that we might be forgiven of our sins, God is the personification of love by giving his son as that ransom, take care D-nyce
