Christ Forward

I often times feel the need to be more than I am, to share the love and joy I feel when I let go the dam.

Empathy and compassion, that I have bottled up, the pain and suffering that goes with these, overflows my cup.

I ache inside for all of us, seeing our needs so great,

Knowing that it's Christ who heals, and we should imitate.

Those in darkness don't understand, love is a definite must,

that all these gifts we have to share, are also gifts to us.

They choose to give the credit, to a being just like them,

I want to let them know that what we have is given by Him.

I want to sing out," Praise the Lord, His greatness is all around,

and I wish to share with you within my heart what the Lord has bound".

It does not come from me, my flesh, which corrupts the same as theirs,

we ask the Lord to make us do what in Spirit will make us heirs.

Love and comfort sharing pain, in Spirit we should know,

he's written His law in our hearts and minds, the Way that we are to go.

I find that they are fearful, those who need the most,

the Lord above turns fear to love through the power of the Holy Ghost.

I also wish to tell them, give Him all..that is His due,

He has given us everything, including me and you.

I want to tell them exactly what, it is that they should fear... being far from the One, who has drawn us all so near.

I know my Lord has a plan, it's written in His Word,

and I know when He returns, all the world would have heard.

Forgiveness and redemption, with which we have been blessed,

living in the Grace of God, we enter into His Rest.

{1 John 4:18} There is no fear in love. But perfect love drives out fear, because fear has to do with punishment.The one who fears is not made perfect in love.
