Poetry
How wonderful it is to know that the Father up above
Keeps His eyes upon us all and watches over us with love
Our faith may often fail and our eyes from him may stray
He will not forsake us then but will keep us all the way.
It is marvelous to trust in our Savior's matchless love
As hearts of many doubt he still watches us from above
Some say that God is dead but we know that He still lives
In our hearts He now abides with Joy and peace He gives.
I am happy now to know that my sins are all forgiven.
My name has been written in the book of life in Heaven.
When I enter Heaven's gates all my burdens I'll lay down.
At the feet of my Lord, to exchange them for my crown.
Do you ever not feel saved? If so, please join the club. However, I now praise God that the Christian life is not built on feelings, but on the saving and keeping power of God, through His son Christ Jesus. ( 2 Peter 3:18)
For, if it were by feelings:
--- Would I not be saved on Monday morning, when the car failed to start and the car pooling school children were all screaming.
--- Would I not be saved when my boss called me out in the staff meeting, for not completing my project on time.
--- Would I not be saved when the home air conditioning broke down three days before payday.
--- Would I not be saved when the family dog ate poisoned meat and was rushed to the vet.
And on-and-on, but I feel you get the picture. For the scripture tells us it rains on the just and the unjust as well. ( Matt 5:45 )
However, unlike the unbelievers, out final eternal home is God's Glory Land. For, as believers in Christ, we are all heaven bound. ( Philippians 3:20 )
So, relax. Go get a big glass of "Sweet Tea" and memorize this scripture verse. ( Psalm 118:24)
