Rebuilding The Broken

Love Rebuilds Again

Once a beauty, shiny, new;

A handsome lookin' ride.

Leather seats and fully loaded;

Smelt so good inside.

It's traveled far, has lots of miles;

Been through rain and snow.

It's been through sticky little hands;

And sometimes wouldn't go.

One day, a bashing crash;

Left it mangled, caved.

Brought it to a body shop;

In hopes it would be saved.

The specialist, worked and worked;

Until the job was through,

And now this "62" corvette;

Is sparklin', just like new.

God, He has a body shop.

Christians work for Him.

Our business is rebuilding lives;

Crushed and bashed by sin.

When we view an awful crash;

A brother, caught in sin.

Instead of judging, in our pride;

Love, rebuilds again.

A crash, could be a loss of faith;

Or sin, performed in haste.

A crash, could be, an angry heart;

In grief, some hurt now faced.

When life comes down, in a crash;

And life to them, its end.

That's the time, they need us most;

To be a Christian friend.

Two Kinds of People

By: Susan Y Nikitenko

April 12th 2011

There are two kinds of people;

Living here in this world.

The children of the darkness;

or the children of the Lord.

One lives, but yet He is dead;

While one has been raised anew.

Life is found in Christ alone;

And it’s offered now to you.

The children of light and life;

Were born into a family.

They became children of God;

They were blind, but now they see.

One day their eyes were opened;

One day they found life.

They found peace like a river;

And comfort in the night.

For just as the first man;

Received breath in His lungs.

And life filled His body;

And speech came from his tongue.

Those lost in the darkness;

Are spiritually dead.

But Jesus has offered;

His Salvation instead.

Do you know He gave His life;

Upon a cruel, cruel tree?

He shed His precious blood;

For both you and for me.

He is reaching from heaven;

And He speaks tenderly.

“I will save you, I love you;

Just put your trust in me.”

The grave could not hold Him;

So Salvation now reigns.

It’s offered to all;

And must be proclaimed.

Ephesians 2:5 Even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved;

Ephesians 5:14 Wherefore he saith, Awake thou that sleepest, and arise from the dead, and Christ shall give thee light.

2Peter 3:9 The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.

Colosians 1:28 Whom we preach, warning every man, and teaching every man in all wisdom; that we may present every man perfect in Christ Jesus:

(KJV)
