My Testimony of Jesus Love for us
« on: April 15, 2018, 08:52:30 AM »
Since I do not have a place to put poetry at this time....could I share it here for now? It too is all about Jesus and His love for us.

A Table Without End

Can you imagine a table without end
At it God bids welcome one and all,
The poor and the rich who love him
The young and the old are His.

Those who were sick now completely restored
Those who were rich or poor, now satisfied,
Those young or old, now filled with vitality
Those who love their Lord, without number.

There is a place for them at the Kings Table.

Blessed is he who eats bread in the kingdom of God
Possessions, riches and pleasures were not all-absorbing,
They do not refuse the invitation to the Kings Feast
With Excuses, letting
Earths invitations be too compelling, too alluring.

They allow interruption when the Father calls
It’s Suppertime, come one and all,
They drop whatever this world has given
To be with God at His Table up in heaven.

Friends, it’s Suppertime,
the call to one and all still rings;
Won’t you put down the worlds joys
And follow the maker of all,
At His Table Without End?

Beautiful !  Yes, not allowing the things of this earth to be "all-absorbing."

I had a beautiful picture of a daddy's large hand with his baby's hand upon it.
So the first stanza is the earthy daddy, but the 2ed is our Heavenly Father.

My Father’s Hands

Father, I love your hands, so much larger than mine
You love me so and your actions are so kind,
Father, I love your hands, they feel so strong to me
And just knowing you are close, safe I know I’ll be.

Father God, shelter is within your hands so strong
You have asked me to obey, my life to prolong,
Father God, I see your love for me in every way
And just knowing You are close, safe I will be.

(Regardless of what comes,
        I will be safe in God's Loving Hands)

I had a big picture of a filthy place with writing on the walls and a all around slum look to it. But the beautiful thing about it was that there was a huge hole in the wall and on the other side was a bright light, and pretty tree and country. A huge contrast from the room. In the room there was a little baby who discovered the beautiful whole that was so beautiful to this child, for the child had never before seen anything like it.

Leaving for the Light
 
How long have you walked, the streets of this world
That seemed to be all right, as you have been told.
Only because a better way you have not seen
Happy enough to stay, not reaching for the green.
 
But at one time or another, you see a better way
Like a hole in your life, no wish to stay,
For the first time, seeing the light of God’s love
Like the difference of the slum and heaven above.
 
Age does not matter, at this time you are young
Like a child, you want to see the Holy One,
Now within your heart, is pumping fresh blood
Inside, the desired change is like a flood.
 
Fresh heavenly water washing you inside out
Bidding you to follow and make a turn-about,
Slowly leaving the life of sin, the Spirit feeding
You’re walking into the entrance, God now leading.
 
Finely you are on the other side, leaving the slum
You no longer desire wrong, but follow The Holy One,
So happy that life has taken such a turn
A preparatory life for heaven, for this you now yearn.

"You no longer desire wrong"  -- Not sure if you're describing this as after we get to heaven, or that we will eventually get to that point here on earth.  But I like the idea!

This is about our walk with the Lord here on this earth. If we follow Him as He wishes us to, we will come to a point where we no longer have any wrong that we desire to take part of. Our only desire will be to please Jesus and we will desire to see a smile on His face for us when we meet Him face to face.
