by admin

The Cold Within James Patrick Kinney Six humans trapped by happenstance in black and bitter cold Each possessed a stick of wood, Or so the story’s told. Their dying fire in need of logs, the first woman held hers back For on the faces around the fire She noticed one was black. The next man […]

I’d Rather See a Sermon

by admin

I’d Rather See a Sermon Edgar A Guest   I’d rather see a sermon than hear one any day; I’d rather one should walk with me than merely tell the way. The eye’s a better pupil and more willing than the ear, Fine counsel is confusing, but example’s always clear; And the best of all […]

The Echo

The Echo “I spoke a word in anger To one who was my friend, Like a knife it cut him deeply, A wound that was hard to mend. That word, so thoughtlessly uttered, I would we could both forget, But its echo lives and memory gives The recollection yet. How many hearts are broken, How […]

Would I Be Called a Christian?

Forget & Remember

God Is Always There

What God Has Promised

WHAT GOD HATH PROMISED God hath not promised skies always blue,  Flower-strewn pathways all our lives through; God hath not promised sun without rain,  Joy without sorrow, peace without pain.

Little Things Teach Lessons

Courage

To Be a Christian

To Be a Christian ‘Tis noble to be a Christian ‘Tis honor to bear the name; To know we are honored in heaven Is better than earthly fame. The name implies one is noble, It means he is honest and true; It means his life is Christ-like– Does it mean all this to you?   […]

Sometimes

Sometimes “If times are hard, and you feel blue, Think of the others, worrying too: Just because your trials are many, Don’t think the rest of us don’t have any. Life is made up of smiles and tears, Joys and sorrows, mixed with fears; And though to us it seems one-sided, Trouble is pretty well […]

What Will He See?

by admin

WHAT WILL HE SEE? When Jesus looks upon my life, what picture does He see? Does He see His own reflection, or does He just see me? Does He see His likeness, the product of His hand, Or just another Christian, who never took a stand? Does He see a child of God, a child […]

The Only Bible

by admin

Betrayed

BETRAYED Friend, I stand in judgment now And feel that you’re to blame somehow, On earth, I walked with you day by day, And never did you point the way. You knew the Lord in truth and glory But never did you tell His story, My knowledge then was very dim, You could have led […]

Unless You Let It In

If All Were Like You!
