Thanks Carla. Wouldn't this be a better world if we all trusted in Christ as the scriptures direct.

Thanks, John

ONE OF MY FAVORITES: ENJOY!! GOD BLESS YOU!


The Lighthouse

There's a lighthouse on the hillside that over looks life's sea. When I'm tossed about, it sends out a light that I might see. And the light that shines in the darkness now will safely lead us o'er. If it wasn't for the lighthouse, my ship would be no more.

Everybody that lives around us says tear that lighthouse down,
The big ships, don't sail this way anymore.
There's no use in it standing 'round.
But then my mind goes back to that stormy night,
When just in time, I saw the light.
Yes, the light from that old lighthouse, that stands up on the hill.

And I thank God for the lighthouse, I owe my life to Him, for Jesus is the lighthouse, and from the rocks of sin, He has shone a light around me that I could clearly see, if it wasn't for the lighthouse tell me where would this ship be.

He has shone the light around me, that I could clearly see, if it wasn't for the lighthouse, tell me where would this ship be.

Hello Carla,

I would like to share some poetry I wrote when I was given the gift of
writing for a season.

His Word

When I read His Word
and store it in my heart
my life is so much brighter
I have light for my path

I know where I can go
the map becomes more clear
I'll always have a song to sing
because Jesus is so near

As a child of God
I need to read His Word
not just to know it
but to give it all I'm worth

Jesus is the way for me
even though it's tough
with Jesus in my corner
the road now is not too rough

Many have fallen from the way
let the shepherd find you today
and bring you into His special flock
and base your life upon the Rock

Jesus is Chief Corner Stone
why many founder, this I know
He's the stumbling block to many
and it does not cost you a penny

He's already paid the price
put His body up for our life
what an unselfish single act
because I was such a brat!

Thank you Jesus for saving me
by dying up on that tree
I can now have life where I had none
Because Your deed has been done

Picture by Erik Hollander, used with permission



This picture is simply awesome, isn't it?
I look at Jesus weeping and wonder - What is He weeping for?
Was this a picture depicted at the time when He stood
in the Olivegrove as He looked down on Jerusalem?
Before He gave His live for us on the cross of Calgary?
Or perhaps it is a more updated version for today.
Jesus is looking at the world at large, not just a small
place like America, or New Zealand where I am from,
but the whole of the world.

Do you wonder, if He might be weeping for you?
He did give His life as the greatest gift a person
can give to everyone.
Even humans who were not born back when He did this deed,
once and for all.
He did die of the most horrendous wounds from torture any
human before or after Him will ever experience.
I wonder why all the pictures of Jesus on the cross,
His face is unmarked?
Because in Isaiah 53 it is written that His face
is unrecognisable.
Many people have rejected this gift. Thrown it back.
I know if it was me and I gave a beautiful gift of myself
to another and I was rejected it would hurt me terribly.
Do you wonder, like I have that He is calling all people
who do not know Him to come and meet with Him?
Do you wonder, where you will go when you die?
Have you even wondered?

Jesus wept.
It is the shortest verse in the bible.
Such a profound sentence.
Two short words.
Jesus wept.
