Blood on the wayside

Hi,
Today, poem that cries from the depths of the purest heart of Jesus. It calls to us who stray. Let us all surrender our lives to him.

I look out the window,
There's blood on the wayside.
I look out and see,
Blood flows in the drain.

This is not a war city,
But deep inside of you.
I committed to you,
But blood flowed on the wayside.

I trusted in you,
Gave my heart to you,
My fountain of blood to you,
But you spilled it on the wayside.

You lost yourself in selfishness,
You became blind in self pity,
You were weak, but did not pray,
Did not ask for ever-ready help.

The blood that pours is a pure blood,
A blood that's filled with the pain of love.
But every hurting word and act,
Turned into a torrent of pain.

Come back dear one, come back,
Back to the arms of the dear Lord.
Come to the place of rest, dear,
Do not bite the bait of the devil.

For the one above hurts when you hurt,
He weeps when you feel pain inside,
He loves eternally and bears you yet,
Never mind what you have been.

Have Faith

All of us have trying times. Jesus was put to the test and so are we. Our Lord calls us to have faith at all times. To trust in him and his promises. Our Lord always keeps his promises, far more than any human person. Let me share some promises our our Lord from the Bible:

"As you sow, so shall you reap"

"In the measure that you use, will it be given to you"

The lesson we have here is clear and strong. So shall you reap. will be given to you.

Both words are affirmative. Some of us may have a darkness when we do good. When we love. There may be apparently no returns. Yet, the Lord tells us like as if it already is confirmed.

Indeed, so shall you reap. There is nothing more than sow that is said here. Therefore, do not worry because sometimes in hard times, you may only sow and sow and sow and apparently be hurt and pained and shamed.

Do not worry because the Lord tells us in the affirmative. It is true. O yes it is that the rewards will come. Maybe a month, a year, a few years.

So love, love and love more. Love in good times and bad. Love when it is returned and when it is not. Look at the meaning of what our Lord did. The rewards of the souls were after Jesus died.

At one point, Christianity was a message in the hearts of 11 faithful men afraid of the world and branded as traitors. These, who did not leave the Lord when he said:

"And you, would you also want to leave?"

Let us take the example of Saint Peter, who says:

"To whom shall we go, Lord? You have the words of eternal life."

A poem on faith:

Whenever there's a problem,
Wherever there's despair
Just bow your head in prayer and know
That God will always be there.

When things look bleak and dreary,
When it seems that no one cares,
Have faith, my friend, in our Lord
And he will answer all your prayers.

I know sometimes it's hard,
Things don't seem to work out right,
But it truly is quite pointless
To kick or scream or fight.

When you really need an answer,
On HIM you can depend.
Only FAITH can move a mountain -
So, have FAITH in God, my friend!

Most Faithful

We need to find good relationships everywhere. Both at home, and at work. We need God in our hearts always to help us love and forgive. We need the God of love to fulfil our being. A poem singing the great love and faithfulness of a God who is the epitome of perfect love.

How faithful your love, O God,
How great your sacrifice!
I see your son on the cross -
Jesus message of greatest love.

How much you chase after us,
Even when we are unfaithful.
Your patience transcends the limits of time,
As you go after your lost sheep.

I read your message for us, Lord,
Your message for us who stray,
How you embrace us like a Father,
How you prepare a feast in welcome!

Amazing are your ways, Lord,
Great indeed are your works,
But none can match your love Lord,
None, your everlasting faithfulness.

When you say "Father forgive them",
It rings in my ears!!
I see your face on the cross,
Peaceful through forgiveness.

How beautiful to see my Savior,
How awesome his sweet face.
How man longs for your love, Lord.
Let's remember he died in our place.

We need to talk

A thought crossed my mind yesterday. I have felt lonely. I need to talk to someone. But yesterday, I realized that with God it is the same way.

God has all the nature of love. He is FULL of love. This is why he sent his son - Jn 3:16. And just as we would want to talk to someone whom we love, so also, God wants to talk to us. He watches us, his beloved children every moment seeing us ignoring him. He wants only to talk to us.

Prayer is not a means to go higher in Gods eyes. That is only a consequence. Prayer happens because we need to talk to the one who loves, just as we would want to talk to a person we love. When I think of prayer this way, the doors to pray open readily.
