    Poem: God is with you!

    God loves you, He sees you, He knows you by name. He knows your heart, He knows every part, Of your soul. He knows! When He looks at you, He doesn't just see your sins, He sees your pain. He knows how you feel, He knows all the words, That has hurt you. He knows! He is with you in...

    Why do people reject Jesus Christ?

    I never understood this. I'm not sure that I'm posting this in the right forum, because it's not a question about theology, it's more a matter of the heart. I just don't understand why people reject Christ even once they know who He is. That some are chosen, some aren't, isn't the question here...

    Poem: Too much love???

    I can't handle all of God's goodness, My heart can't cope, There's not room enough, I'm just human. Lord, why are You pouring so much love over me? When You know that my heart isn't yet big enough to hold it? It's overflowing, I'm overwhelmed.

    Poem: No condemnation, just love!

    Lord, I'm in tears, At Your feet, I cannot look into Your eyes, Though I want to. They are filled with love, And forgiveness, For a sinner like me, But I look away. There are men who judge, Who condemn me, I'm a sinful woman, And they know it. I am filled with shame, Yet it is You, That they...

    Poem: Zombies

    The world is dying, It is rotting around me, Zombies are roaming, Everywhere. There is no life within them, Dead men walking, In darkness. They don't know where they are going. "We don't want life, We want to stay dead! There is nothing for us, In Christ!" "Leave us alone, We will dwell in...

    Poem: We are Your children

    God, I am Your child, I know because I have Your Spirit, I was created in Your image, Then born-again in the image of Christ. The freedom that You have given me, Is beyond my understanding, But I received it, Because You love me. I see who You are, And I run to You. I look at myself, And I...

    Poem: Where are all His sheep?

    (This is an expression of what is in my heart) Wolves, wolves, wolves, I am surrounded by wolves, They are everywhere I go, Waiting to attack. Where can I find another sheep? I search for them everywhere, As I follow my Shepherd, I meet one who looks like a sheep, But hidden under the wool, Is...

    Jesus, You know my name!

    I was in a deep dark pit, Dug for me by my enemies, By Your enemies, Because I belong to You. I could no longer call out to Your Name, No longer trust You in my heart, Because those who put me there, Were calling themselves by Your Name. But in my despair and unfaithfulness, You stayed...

    God, I need You so much!

    A poem to Lord Jesus. I just needed to pour my heart out and express myself. :) "Redeemed Forever" (Thank you, Dave G. for this awesome title) Jesus, I have been so unfaithful to You, Sometimes I can do nothing but sin, Yet You call my name and lead me back, Though I don't deserve it, not even...

    How to respond to praise from people?

    Here's my question. At my current job, I work closely with my colleagues. I tell them a lot about my life, and I'm used to being persecuted when I do that. But these are very mature and introverted and humble people, most of them anyway. They aren't Christian though, except two of them. For...

    Please pray for my unsaved family

    Will you please pray for my sister and mother? They aren't saved, but they desperately need Jesus. I had a terrible childhood. I have a brother and a sister. My mother and father both emotionally abused us, and we were bullied in school. The town where I grew up is a very bad place. There is...

    Prayer to get over fear

    I am struggling so hard to get over an abusive relationship from last year. It started in April and ended in June, and it was only on here and on Skype, but it hurt me so much, it has taken me this long to even begin to get over it. I am deeply terrified after what happened. This man tore apart...
