Words Of Life

If you want to be wise, listen to Jesus.

John 6:68_

Lord, to whom shall we go? You have the words of eternal life. Read John 6:60-71

John's account was the final gospel record written, and the author, John the son of Zebedee, outlived all of the other disciples of Jesus, His writing often focuses on two important contrasts: light versus darkness and life versus death.__Bill Crowder

There's so much wisdom to be learned,

So many ways for me to grow,

Lord, I would listen like a child,

And learn what You would have me know.__

Nest In The Greatness

To mistreat God's creation is to offend the Creator.

Genesis 2:15_

The lord God...put him in the garden of Eden to tend and keep it.

As the marsh-hen secretly builds

on the water sod,

Behold I will build me a nest

on the greatness of God;

I will fly in the greatness of God

as the marsh-hen flies

In the freedom that fills all the space

'twixt the marsh and the skies. __

Sidney Lanier

The natural world that God has made

Must not be used at whim;

We serve as stewards of His earth,

Responsible to Him. __D. De Haan
