Only thru the Blood Of Jesus

Father!! Is There Any Other Way? By: Maxine M. Father!! Is There Any Other Way? As His hour approached, THIS, the Son of God, in agony would ask Feelings of anxiety & despair, from His Father, He didn’t try to mask To bare all the awful ugly sins of the world…even its Creator was overwhelmed by this enormous task The severe sense of pain, humiliation, and degradation He soon would bare He was to drink from the cup of the Father’s wrath…which was rightfully OURS to share In His divine knowledge, what all THAT would involve, He was totally aware But since He & the Father were ONE, He knew what the answer would be Because He’d already told His followers, “I am the WAY, the TRUTH, & the eternal LIFE”…you’ll see “For no one comes to the Father except through ME” I AM the door…those who enter by Me will be saved & prevail I know My sheep…I carry & strengthen all who are weak and frail But the MANY who try...

Now THAT’S Scary! By: Maxine M. At the end of October, there’s a “scary” night on the eve of All Saint’s day Children are eager & excited as to which costume character they want to portray Perhaps a zombie, monster or skeleton carrying a carved pumpkin with hideous face to display Ghosts, goblins, witches, even a were-wolf or two trying to hide Soon they will be roaming the streets in every city far and wide All designed to be SCARY as “trick or treat” is gleefully cried For there, in the dark of night, they will try to accumulate a FULL pail Frightening people along the way is an ADDED BONUS…brings enjoyment without fail Mysterious sounds will be uttered leaving small ones fainthearted & pale There will be a new batch of “horror” movies with scenes in bloody gruesome details Previews of gross ghastly images will help improve ticket sales Terror is prevalent in all of these suspense filled tales Girls will scream ...

ALL THINGS By: Maxine M. ALL THINGS…any matter, affair, concern, happening, incident you can name A tangible or intangible object, item, detail, person or creature…wild or tame Every total entity that exists anywhere in the diverse universal frame God Made ALL THINGS Col 1:16 declares that God the Father created ALL THINGS by His own will That in ALL THINGS, HE may have PREEMINENCE…His desires fulfill Even the very angels were created and are ALL in existence still Life in every form came to be at His COMMAND…NOTHING excluded The solar system, wind, rain, hail, the four seasons…in ALL THINGS, these are included And since creation, He’s maintained ALL THINGS by the power of His WORD…this can NOT be disputed Now, ALL THINGS encompasses YOU!! Your very being…just WHO you are And YOU are just as great a MIRACLE as the brightest distant star You were created for Him…do you know Him? Have you WALKED with H...

Has Your Money Taken Wings? By: Maxine M. Has the last few days and weeks produced a “state of panic” for you? Has your stability disappeared as if a wind blew away the security you hoped to accrue? What will the future hold…how will it be different from the life we knew? When your “money” is GONE!!...where, for reassurance, can you turn? We struggle in fear’s deadly grip…uncertainty makes our emotions churn Will things ever get better? Will days of prosperity return? Was “the Markets” the first thing you checked on in any given day? Changed investments…at the sound of the bell, buying/selling without delay Technology made it easy to always hear what the “experts” had to say Did you totally depend on what your retirement account would earn? Was it a matter of CORRUPTION & GREED in trusted leaders we didn’t discern? Power can corrupt the sincerest politician…from HISTORY we can learn Wasn’t it like the FOX was in char...

What’s YOUR Future? By: Maxine M. The Future!! What will happen beyond today? What events will come to be? Is it a fearful prospect…for the world is quickly falling into disorder, we can all agree Chaos reigns throughout the world…turmoil everywhere we can see Financial institutions have failed…economy shaken to it’s very core Prices on everything have risen to astronomical highs no one can ignore Storms arise one after another to buffet everything along the coastline’s shore Soon the nation will choose a new leader…which one is right? Will our relationship with Israel stay faithful, genuinely tight? Those nations that HATE us, will they attack us some fateful night? Will we ever break that “yoke of dependency” of foreign oil? Do terrorists have new plans for killing us on our very own soil? The battles over abortion and gay marriage never cease to boil Fires rage, threatening homes & property all across the land Violence in ou...

Please!! Find A Way By: Maxine M. Jesus commanded, “Go into ALL the world, spread the gospel’s Good News” That was a “TALL order”…the Apostles had to choose Of how really BIG this task would be, He had given only subtle clues They had walked with Him all across Israel’s diverse land…STRICTLY teaching Jews Now He was sending them BEYOND those boarders…would they refuse? OR travel as new missionaries, starting Christian churches…bring converts into the pews Turning their back on the old established Jewish order they had known In these fore-fathers of the church, what a tremendous leap of Faith was shown Through perils and hardships they ENDURED, to spread the Word…Salvation is in Christ alone The world as they knew it was relatively small…vast areas still unexplored Rome ruled the “known” CIVILIZED world, not realizing there was so much more Soon the whole world would be changing…TIME and PROGRESS opened a new exciting door TO...

Satan’s Plot By: Maxine M. One day Satan, while walking to & fro on the earth, noticed 2 of his demons seemed depressed “What’s wrong with you two?” the devil asked. They both broke down & confessed We’ve been working hard at trying to STOP the Gospel…we’ve done our very best We’ve seen the trouble and discord, but Jesus’ “Good News” always seems to prevail These followers of His just won’t give up…they’re even willing to die or go to jail We’ve “deterred” some through wine, drugs or lust, BUT on these TRUE Christians, even these will fail We entered many churches, watered down the message till some are now luke-warm We’ve taken their friends, spouses, children and even pets by accidents, disease and devastating storm We’ve accused them of INTOLERANCE, yet to this Gospel’s way of life, they still conform We stirred the “political pot” till hatred for them reigns supreme We’ve banished their “Book” from schools and poured ...
