Sharing Simple Things

A poem that I learned many, many years ago expresses my reason for serving the Lord.

Why I Love The Lord

(Author Unknown)

You ask me why I love the Lord,

Well, friend, just let me say...

Life wasn't worth the living,

'Till the Savior came my way.

You say I miss so much of life,

Yes, friend, praise God, I do.

I miss the sin and sorrow,

That once were all I knew.

I miss the days spent seeking joy,

The long nights full of tears.

I miss the heavy burden,

That I carried through the years.

But, friend, I wouldn't have them back,

For all that life could pay.

Life wasn't worth the living,

'Till the Savior came my way

Life without Jesus would not be a life, it would be an existence.  He is my everything.  

He has promised to be with me, guide me, protect me and hear my prayers.  

What more could anyone ask?  I love Him with all my heart.

My card for this week:

Fear not tomorrow, God is already there.
