... Help Me to Remember to Forgive This poem is written from the perspective of a Christian, who knows that Jesus Christ is her Savior! When someone hurts my feelings And sometimes makes me cry, I tell myself" Just forgive" And then I really try! But hurts can sometimes linger. No matter what we say. Another day still passes. And I neglect to pray! My hurt feelings begin to swell. I can tell my heart gets colder, too. But still I refuse to kneel and pray. I'd feel so much better if I talked to You! Dear Lord, I so much need You then! And I love You so very much. Come and comfort me with love, And let me feel Your tender touch! Your tenderness and love soothes my soul. As I fall to my knees in prayer. It washes my heart and makes me feel, Like Spring, when a rainstorm clears the air! ...

Jesus is so wonderful, He will understand, and forgive us whenever we fail. If only we ask in faith, He will forgive, Even if we ask from a jail! If you fall to temptation, don't get so uptight. Fall on your knees and admit your guilt. Jesus will come and give you assurance. That His love still covers you just like a quilt! Put your trust and His love where you'll remember it best. In your heart let it ever abide. When temptations come let Him face the test. You'll find ...

... My Turning Point A friend of mine came by one day And shared an old, old story. He spoke to me of God's great love. He spoke of heaven's glory. He spoke to me of man's great need-Forgiveness for our sin. But if we'd open wide our heart, Then Jesus would come in. I thought about what this friend said; Won'dring-could this be true? Then, on my knees, I prayed," Dear God, I want this life brand new" And in that instant Jesus came, Right straight into my heart. There, in His presence oh so real, I knew He'd not depart. My sins, completely washed away, My step, a whole lot lighter, A wave of love washed over me, And ev'rything seemed brighter. In that one eternal instant, My life forever changed; Priorities turned upside down; Desires were rearranged. Now ev'ry day I realize, ...

We trust Him every mile we go, On the way to our final abode. We ll not stand before the White Throne, But will be judged at the Bema Seat. We are sinners, who were forgiven by grace, And Jesus provides our receipt. He paid our sin debt for us, And we are covered by His veil. We traveled the road to Heaven, Rather than choosing the road to hell.

... My Love Is Forever When I was young I thought I would never feel afraid. When I grew older I thought I would never find peace. Sometimes life teaches me the things that I already thought I knew. I once asked the forgiveness of every star I saw. But there are no mistakes, only lessons. Life continues to be my teacher although sometimes I feel too weary to learn. Our journey will take us to somewhere we have never been. There're a hundred changes we can make, a thousand paths to take, And a million dreams. If we have hope, we are halfway to where we want to go. If we are hopeless, we are lost forever. Many will say our love holds no future. Many will decide our choices will bring despair. I know nothing of how to live but I can know many uncertain things. I give you my heart, I tell you my dreams. I kiss ...

As He hung there in such terrible agony, With His blood now beginning to shed, No greater love could have ever been expressed, Than through the words that Jesus then said.

To show you how it would feel to stop being blessed" I began to realize what the Lord was saying. And when I got home, I fell to my knees and started praying. He said," My child, you have learned and you know I do forgive. But remember to remember this day as long as you shall live" I love filling your life with joy, and your pain I'll alleviate it.

... such love in His eyes. He listened to my worries, and then my life He energized. I poured out my very soul, to this kind and gentle Man. He wrapped His arms around me, And my new life began. His name is Jesus! He's the Messiah! He understood just how I felt, and He told me a gruesome story, and how painfully He had dealt. He taught me how to smile again, He encouraged me to forgive. And from that moment on, I knew what it was to live! He took all my sins and afflictions, and nailed them to a cross. And I now have this freedom, across my heart embossed. Jesus is my Savior! He set me free from agony and grief. He is my precious Friend, And His gracious love is my on-going relief.~Eva May Young~It gives me a warm feeling in my heart to write poetry. I ...
... The Glory Of The Resurrection No resurrection no life beyond the grave. No hope of Heaven for none would be saved. There would be no forgiveness for our sin and no hope for mankind to begin again. Jesus bore our sins and took our stripes through Him we may have eternal life. The resurrection was part of God's plan to settle the sin debt for sinful man. Had not our Lord hung on the cross we all would remain hopelessly lost. Mankind owed a debt we could not pay the shedding of blood was the only way. The blood of animals, the spotless lambs did not suffice to redeem fallen man. It pleased God for Jesus to give His life so Jesus became our perfect sacrifice. Just as winter always gives way to spring, nature is revived and birds begin to sing. Death gave way to life on resurrection day and God raised Jesus to show us the way. If God can cause nature to bring ...

The Bible says, that our Jesus is the Light, We get to Heaven through that Door. If we read the Bible and do what it says. We really won't need anything more!

While nails are driven through My flesh, Piercing through the vein. The agony is unbearable, As spikes drive through bone. And they nail me to the cross, To suffer all alone. I now look down from My cross, And see the brutal few." Father, please forgive them, They know not what they do" To My right and to My left, The two thieves I behold. One this day finds Paradise, But the other's heart is cold. Below Me I can dimly see those gathered at My cross, Trying hard to hold back tears, As they suffer great loss." Woman, behold your Son" It hurts you, that I know. I can see the torment in your eyes, As tears begin to flow ...
... the coming of this child had long been foretold. For He was the Messiah, the Redeemer of man, conceived through the Spirit; part of God's plan. Years passed and He grew, then in love He reached out. The miracles He worked should have left little doubt That this was God's Son, no ordinary man He, sent forth to deliver, to pardon, set free. He spoke of new life; and showed others the way to be granted forgiveness; receive salvation that day. But many were deaf to the truth of God's Word. They had ears to listen yet their hearts never heard. His ministry on earth brought Him not man's esteem, for many would reject that their souls He'd redeem. Still He gave up His life; bore man's guilt; suffered shame. Obeying His Father, The Sacrificial Lamb He became. His life's blood poured out for the remission of sin; yet He conquered even death when He ...

The tears we've shed are Life's sweet rain; its flowers spring from strife, And trials and tribulations are the mortar in this Life. The stress and strain upon our souls unite to make us strong, Cares and struggles light the way -when our road is dark and long. So thank Him for His bounty, for our families and our friends, And for granting us forgiveness -when we must make amends. But recall God's other blessings -for their merit's oft untold, Praise God for loving you enough -to help you build the road.
