LOST
By:
Stephen Hills
I went years
thinking my good works
were sending
me to that place.
I didn’t
know that it meant nothing
without
having faith.
I thought I
was wise enough
to know who
was evil and who was going to hell.
I didn’t
realize I was one of them
until that
day I fell.
I believed
God was our Creator
and I knew He
was there.
I just didn’t
do anything with it -
I didn’t
really care.
I didn’t
need God back then.
I was doing
just fine all on my own.
But life can
change in a split second
and
everything can be gone.
He could have
let me go that day,
but I
wouldn’t have been with Him.
Instead He
gave me a second chance
and for that
I will be grateful until the end.
Back then the
Bible meant nothing to me.
It was just a
book that religious people read.
Now that my
eyes have been opened,
I know it is
the only way my soul can be fed.
I can do
nothing on my own.
I am just an
ordinary man.
But with the
power of God
I can do
anything He says I can.
Someday I
will be in Heaven
and I will
learn the rest of the story.
But until
then I will remain here on earth
sharing God’s
glory

GOD IS
THERE
By:
Stephen Hills
God is there
morning,
noon, and night.
God is there
with us
When we do
wrong or when we do right.
God was there
during our birth
And
throughout all of our life,
God made man
to be a
husband and for woman to be his wife.
God is there
when times are tough
and when
things are going good.
God is there
always
Like He
promised He would.
God is there
waiting patiently
for us to
hear His voice.
God is there
watching
over all of
His girls and boys.
God is there
when we are happy
And He is
there when we are sad.
God is there
for us to worship
whole
heartedly -He is not a temporary fad.
God was there
when they
crucified the Son of Man.
God was there
on the third
day
when Jesus
rose just as He planned.
God is there
when we are
jealous, angry, or when we complain.
God is there
for us always
and that will never change.
God is there
to forgive us
if we have faith in His one and only Son,
God makes
this wonderful gift available
God will not
be with those who fail to believe
that Jesus
died for our sins.
God will have
tears in his eyes
for all the
lost souls Satan wins.

Free
Will
By:
Stephen Hills
Free will is
a gift from God,
that we will
never lose.
He
desperately wants us to love Him
and He allows
us to choose.
If we didn’t
have the choice,
we would
never know that He
is so good.
It wouldn’t
be real any other way
and this
God
understood.
Not everyone
chooses Him
and that
saddens God very much.
Some people
deny Him
because God
can’t be seen or touched.
God has the power
to make us do
what He wants.
He can make
us obey
Instead
He decided to
earn our love -
to Him there
was no other way.
He was
willing to sacrifice many
when He gave
us that power.
God so loves
us,
He will save
us even -
on our last
hour.
Don’t take
what God gave us for granted.
You may find
yourself on the other side,
I’m going
to follow Jesus
and when I
die,
Heaven is
where I will reside.

Temptation
By:
Stephen Hills
Satin makes
it easy,
He tempts us
day and night.
God will not
let him have us,
without a
Spiritual fight.
Many material
things on earth
can easily be
earned.
Those things
mean nothing
and someday
will be burned.
What is of
value
we cannot
see.
It is the
Spirit of God
that lives
inside you and me.
Don’t be a
fool and give in to
the wants of
your flesh.
Denying
yourself from those things
is part of
the test.
Your pride
here on earth
can keep you
from the Lord,
being humble
and faithful is what He adores.
The answer is
simple
and is
available to all -
Follow Jesus
