SEEING!

THE DATE WAS OCT.25, 2010,

WHEN THESE WORDS I PENNED;

A COUPLE MONTHS AGO,

I WENT TO THE EYE DOCTOR,

I WAS NOT SEEING THINGS,

ALL THE NICE THINGS AROUND ME.

HE TESTED MY EYES AND ASKED,

ARE YOU STILL DRIVING?

I REPLIED NO I AM NOT,

AND HE SAID YOU ARE WISE

YOU ARE SEEING ABOUT TEN PERCENT.

HE PRESCRIBED GLASSES AND NOW,

I SEE THINGS I WAS MISSING.

IN MY SPIRITUAL LIFE,

WHEN I WAS YOUNG I WAS BLIND;

I DID NOT SEE MYSELF AS BAD,

AND NEEDING A SAVIOR.

THEN, IN THE FALL OF 1958,

I ASKED GOD TO SAVE MY SOUL,

BY HIS AMAZING GRACE AND AGAPE LOVE,

IN THAT SMALL BAPTIST CHURCH,

I SAID THANK YOU JESUS FOR SHEDDING,

SHEDDING YOUR BLOOD TO REDEEM MY SOUL.

I ASK THOSE WHO ARE LOST AND WANDERING

TO ASK JESUS TO SAVE YOUR WEARY SOUL,

AND WALK IN NEWNESS ON OUR HEAVENLY TRAIL

ETERNITY FOREVER FOR SAVED SOULS!

The Touch of My Fathers Hand!

Image
The Touch of Fathers Hand!   When I was young and being bad, I thank God for the dad I had, He would not beat me, But he would guide, With words of wisdom, Obtained from God’s word, He kept by his side. Every night I would wait, Watching him come down the hill, Walking from work To enjoy his family, While supper we ate. Dad made sure his family, Went to Church each Sunday, To learn about Jesus, That He was the truth, the Life, And the way, We would sing “Jesus loves me,” And ” This is my Father’s world”. I thank God, For my father, And his leading me, To know the Master, And a home with Jesus, For Eternity. Thank you dad, And thank you Heavenly Father, For loving me, And loving others, for Eternity! ~Winston Staples

Saintly Walk

Walk of a Saint! Today I start a series on our conduct as a Saint [one following Christ].I am using my King James Bible for it’s wisdom. How should we be seen to others? Attentive to the voice of Christ. John 10:3-4King James Version 3  To him the porter openeth; and the sheep hear his voice: and he calleth his own sheep by name, and leadeth them out. 4  And when he putteth forth his own sheep, he goeth before them, and the sheep follow him:  for they know his voice. *Blameless and harmless—Phil.2:14-15 [KJV] 14  Do all things without murmurings and disputings: 15  That ye may be blameless and harmless,  the sons of God, without rebuke, in the midst of a crooked and perverse nation, among whom ye shine as lights in the world; *Bold in our Faith— Romans 13:3 and Proverbs 28:1 We are going to Romans 13:3 you can read Proverbs 28:1 from your Bible and underline things that speak to you. Romans 13:2-4 King James Version 2  Whosoever therefore resistet...

LIFE GOES ON!

LIFE GOES ON! Sitting on my old lawn chair, looking all around me, and into the air. I hear a sweet sound, music to my ear; The sound of a robin’s song, which seemed to say, cheer up, cheer up, my friend; God has given us a beautiful day! Now, I take time to thank Him, and praise Him for each sound, and each smell and beauty, I behold as I look all around. My dear friends take a moment, and close your eyes and pray giving Your thanks and praise everyday! Across the road my neighbour swings, back and forth, back and forth she glides; much like worldly folk, they go back and forth not knowing, where they will end; not knowing they need a saviour, and Jesus is His name. Jesus came from Heaven to save the lost; His salvation is free for all that believe, He died on a cross, He was buried, He arose, and He is coming again. Thank you Lord for saving souls; Thank you Lord for loving us, and Thank you for guiding us, by Your Holy Spirit, and all this because of Your Grace, and not our merit. S...
