YOU ASK WHY I FOLLOW THIS JESUS?
YOU ASK WHY I FOLLOW THIS JESUS?
You ask why I follow this Jesus?
Why I love Him the way I do?
When the world's turned away from His teachings
And the people who serve Him are few.
It's not the rewards I'm after
Or gifts that I hope to receive
It's the Presence that calls for commitment
It's the Spirit I trust and believe.
The Lord doesn't shelter His faithful
Or spare them all suffering and pain,
Like everyone else I have burdens,
And walk through my share of rain.
Yet He gives me a plan and a purpose,
And that joy only Christians have known,
I never know what comes tomorrow,
But I do know I'm never alone.
It's the love always there when you need it;
It's the words that redeem and inspire,
It's the longing to ever be with Him
That burns in my heart like a fire.
So you ask why I love my Lord Jesus?
Well, friend, that's so easy to see,
But the one thing that fills me with wonder is
Why Jesus loves someone like me.

Letter From: GOD
From: GOD
To: All those who believe in me
Date: Today and Everyday
Subject: Life's problems
I am God. Today I will be handling all of your problems. Please remember
that I do not need your help. If the devil happens to deliver a situation to
you that you cannot handle, do not attempt to resolve it. Kindly put it in
the SFJTD (something for Jesus to do) box. It will be addressed in MY TIME,
not yours. Once the matter is placed into the box, do not hold on to it or
remove it.
Holding on or removal will delay the resolution of your problem. If it is a
situation that you think you are capable of handling, please consult me in
prayer to be sure that it is the proper resolution.
Because I do not sleep nor do I slumber, there is no need for you to lose
any sleep. Rest my child. If you need to contact me, I am only a prayer
away.
As with all good things, pass it on
