Christmas First

The world was but a cradle, When the infant child was born. Nothing but a manger, For which to keep him warm.

The angels’ chorus sang, There was frankincense and myrrh. But not a sound he made, This child, with heart so pure.

No mortal man could see, As the star shone down so

Book about God

The Master claimed he had a book that contained everything one could conceivably know about God.

No one had ever seen the book till a visiting scholar, by dint of persistent entreaty, wrested it from the Master. He took it home and eagerly opened it–only to find that every one of the pages was

Barriers to God

The Master would insist that the final barrier to our attaining God was the word and concept “God.”

This so infuriated the local priest that he came in a huff to argue the matter out with the Master.

“But surely the word ‘God’ can lead us to God?” said the priest.

“It can,” said

Attaining God

“What action shall I perform to attain God?”

“If you wish to attain God, there are two things you must know. The first is that all efforts to attain him are of no avail.”

Leaves on trees and in The Book,

Both are worth a second look.

Leaves that grow upon the trees,

Murmur softly in the breeze.

Creation’s message in your ear.

If you decide to take a look

At the “leaves” of the Good Book,

You will read about the way

God Is

To modern people, He’s not logical;

Some don’t believe He’s true;

And yet they always seek Him

When an ill wind comes blowing through.

Beneath the surface of our mind,

Buried in our souls,

Is the ever-present knowledge

Of God’s creative role.

You cannot deny our presence

Or the presence of our Lord;

We

Defeating Sin

Defeating Sin

My mother used to tell me,

“God is everywhere,”

So I would try to see Him

Around me in the air;

And though I never saw Him,

I felt Him watching me;

When I did something bad,

I knew that He could see.

I tried hard to be perfect,

Completely free of

Christian Assurance

When we accept our Savior

And let his Holy Spirit in,

We are shielded by His grace

From falling into sin.

With the Holy Spirit in us,

We never walk alone

No matter where we’re walking

Or how far away we roam.

Christians have assurance

Purchased on the cross

That accepting our salvation

Will
