    WHEN WE LEAVE WORSHIP

    As I sit in church and ponder
    I seriously begin to wonder
    Why am I here?
    What do I need to hear?

    I see the people coming in
    I wonder how they fare within
    Their hearts on Sunday of one accord
    They gather and sing unto the Lord

    But what happens when they leave this place
    Do they put on a different face?
    Do they plunge back into the world
    Forgetting to keep God’s love unfurled?

    Do the words they speak no longer show love
    Are they forgetting God’s love from above
    His love sent in the form of His Son
    Come to save us, the victory won

    Do they forget His sacrifice
    And plunge back into the worlds avarice
    Do they shop and swear
    Forgetting He is still there?

    When we leave this place of worship
    From Him do we lose our grip?
    Jesus wants us to bring Him with us
    He doesn’t want us wandering aimless

    His loving sacrifice on Calvary
    Was to save us from the world, you and me
    We need to hear once again
    That He lives within the hearts of men

    Precious Saviour hear my cry
    Help me to know the reason why
    So many people claim the love of the Lord
    But when they leave worship, they are in discord

    STORMS

    We sit in our homes so cozy and warm
    While outside rages a winter storm
    The winds are whipping the snow
    To stray outside we will not go

    And yet inside us a storm rages too
    We just don’t know it, we don’t persue
    Why we feel so empty at times
    We continue on, no reasons or rhymes

    The storm that rages without
    Will soon pass, blow itself out
    But the storms that rage within
    Are the result of our sin

    We may not know the why
    Sometimes we just don’t try
    We keep going on our own way
    What it really is we downplay

    Sin has tightened its grip
    As deeper into it we slip
    On our own there is no protection
    To our heavenly Father we must listen

    He sent  to us His own dear Son
    If we reject Him we are undone
    We must look deep within
    And turn away from our sin

    Look to Jesus He will lead us thru
    To escape the grip of sin it is what we must do
    Come beneath the crimson flow
    Peace and forgiveness you soon will know

    Soon the storms of winter and sin will pass
    And with forgiveness we’ll cross sin’s crevasse
    For Jesus will calm the storms within and without
    He will show us the true way out

    Jeannine Faith

    We recently had a snowstorm that dropped nearly 14" of snow, our first of the winter season. It got me thinking. Hope you enjoy it. God bless you all.
