His Gift


Thanks be unto God for his unspeakable gift.  2 Corinthians 9:15

Bible Vs. Cell Phone

What would happen if we treated our Bible like we treat our cellphone?

What if we carried it around in our purses or pockets?

What if we flipped through it several times a day?

What if we turned back to go get it if we forgot it?

What if we used it to receive messages from the text?

What if we treated it like we couldn't live without it?

What if we gave it to kids as gifts?

What if we used it when we traveled?

What if we used it in case of emergency?

This is something to think about. Where is my Bible?

Unlike our cell phone, we don't have to worry about our Bible being disconnected because Jesus already paid the bill.

... and No Dropped Calls!

Amazing Grace


Amazing Grace, how sweet the sound, That saved a wretch like me.

I once was lost but now am found, Was blind, but now, I see.


T'was Grace that taught my heart to fear. And Grace, my fears relieved.

How precious did that Grace appear, the hour I first believed.


Through many dangers, toils and snares, I have already come.

T'was Grace that brought me safe thus far, and Grace will lead me home.


The Lord has promised good to me. His word my hope secures.

He will my shield and portion be, as long as life endures.


When we've been here ten thousand years, bright shining as the sun.

We've no less days to sing God's praise, then when we've first begun.


Amazing Grace, how sweet the sound, That saved a wretch like me.

I once was lost but now am found, Was blind, but now, I see.


- John Newton

For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:  Not of works, lest any man should boast.  Ephesians 2:8-9

And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil:






For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever. Amen.

Not The Very Image

Though I dance at a ball, yet am I nothing at all.




Answer:
A shadow.


For the law having a shadow of good things to come, and not the very image of the things, can never with those sacrifices which they offered year by year continually make the comers thereunto perfect.  Hebrews 10:1

Rose of Bethlehem



There’s a Rose in Bethlehem
With a beauty quite divine
Perfect in this world of sin
On this silent holy night

There’s a fragrance much like hope
That it sends upon the wind
Reaching out to every soul
From a lowly manger’s crib

Oh, Rose of Bethlehem
How lovely, pure, and sweet
Born to glorify the Father
Born to wear the thorns for me

There’s a Rose in Bethlehem
Colored red like mercy’s blood
Tis the flower of our faith
Tis the blossom of God’s love

Though its bloom is fresh with youth
Surely what will be He knows
For a tear of morning dew
Is rolling down the Rose

Oh, Rose of Bethlehem
How lovely, pure, and sweet
Born to glorify the Father
Born to wear the thorns for me

There’s a Rose in Bethlehem
With a beauty quite divine
Perfect in this world of sin
On this silent holy night

Oh, Rose of Bethlehem
How lovely, pure, and sweet
Born to glorify the Father
Born to wear the thorns for me

- Selah

We Will Ride




He has fire in His eyes
And a sword in His hand
And He's riding a white horse
Across this land

And He's calling out to you and me
Will you ride with me?

And we say yes
We'll ride with you
We say yes Lord
We will stand up and fight
We will ride

With the armies of Heaven
We're gonna be dressed in white
We say yes Lord
We will ride

He has a crown on His head
And He's carrying a scepter
In His hand

And He's leading the armies
And He's calling out to you and me
Will you ride with Me?

We say yes Lord
We will ride

That fire in His eyes
Is His love for His bride
And He's longing that she will be with Him
Right by His side

That fire in His eyes
Is His burning desire
That His bride be with Him
Right by His side

And He's calling out to us right now
Will you ride with Me?

Yes Lord, yes Lord, yes Lord, yes Lord

- Lindell Cooley
