Keep It Simple

KEEP IT SIMPLE

the Bible is clear
no mystery riddle
or perplexing
confusion

the Word is simple
no brainteaser puzzle
or baffling
illusion

Jesus shares
messages even 
children
comprehend…

God so loved the world that
He gave His only Son so 
whoever believes in Him
will not perish but have
Eternal life
John 3:16

I am the way the truth and life
no one comes to the Father
except through Me
John 14:6




He kept it simple
 so should we

Brainteaser

You keep me roving 
never to find you 

You're
the fugitive
I keep chasing
But never capture

you're
the riddle
I hope to unravel

But you!
You always had your place
you never moved.
All this time
At one place
always have
always will
the only place 
I never look.
