    About this ebook

    I love to worship my Lord Jesus Christ. I worship Jesus in my heart every day. I love to read the bible that tells me the truth about Jesus. I love going to church on the Holy Sabbath day. Writing poetry about my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ helps me to grow stronger in my Lord. It helps to keep me going in my Lord. Jesus gives all of His children spiritual gifts to edify the church. We all are one body in Christ to minister our gifts to one another. If writing poetry about my Lord is all that I can do, then I would give Him my best with that one gift. I am so glad that Jesus loves me and wants to save me from my sins.

    I hope that the wisdom and knowledge that I have to share with you will bless you to hold onto Jesus Christ, who is the light of the world. You can discern my poems to be true or false, if you study the scriptures.The Lord has blessed me to publish this book and I will never claim to know all things. What I do know is what I believe and what I go through in my life. I can only hope that you can relate to me in my poetry about the Lord.My talent in writing is down-to-earth and simple enough for a child to understand. God’s Word has many down-to-earth scriptures that are easy to understand and live by.I hope that you will find in my book things that will help you to have a closer walk with the Lord. My poems are based on my experiences and I hope you can relate to them, which will help me to know that I am not alone in my search to find my Lord, Jesus Christ, who is all about saving souls.I love to exhort the Lord’s holy name in poetry because Jesus Christ is worthy to sit on the throne of my soul every day and every night.

      A beautiful red rose can put a smile on someone’s face.

      Our beautiful red roses of faith will cause Jesus to smile upon our lives.

      Red roses are very eye-catching.

      Our red roses of faith in Jesus are very eye-catching to the angels in heaven.

      That faith is very beautiful beyond our birth pains of life.

      I Had to Choose

      I had to choose to love drugs or love Jesus.

      When I was in the Army, I was a combat engineer.

      I became a SP4 in rank in one year and made soldier of the month for my company.

      But then, I started using drugs and became hooked on them.

      I loved drugs so much that I was using every day.

      Eventually the drugs made me sick and I had to be discharged with a medical honorable discharge.

      I had received some medical treatment in the hospital, where I was treated for a few months.

      I had to come back home to live with my mother, step-father and two sisters.

      They welcomed me back home.

      They would go to church every Saturday morning and come back home in the afternoon.

      I decided to go to church with them.

      I liked going to church and I was baptized some months later.

      I met a young woman who was not in the church.

      We got involved with each other and I left my parent’s house to live with her.

      We began to have some problems while we both were using drugs.

      The problems got so bad that I tried to take my own life by taking sleeping pills.

      My girlfriend saved my life and I woke up in the hospital the next day.

      I decided to go back home to live with my parents, who readily accepted me back home

      I went back to church with them.

      I began to grow much stronger in my Lord Jesus.

      I made up my mind to love and obey Him and not to love the drugs anymore.

      I chose to love Jesus, who set me free from the drugs.

      Jesus gave me a second chance to choose to love Him.

      Jesus had used my girlfriend to save my life so I could live to see the day when I would choose to love Him.

      Having Faith in Jesus

      Can anyone do works in Jesus’ name and have no faith in Jesus Christ?

      Would those works please Jesus?

      Anyone in the church can do some good things and not truly give Jesus the glory and the praise.

      Anyone in the church can use their spiritual gifts and not truly love Jesus.

      Can we hold leadership positions in the church and not truly believe in Jesus?

      Can we pray to Jesus and not truly worship Him?

      Having faith in Jesus is believing that He exists, even though we don’t see him.

      The Pharisees were religious, but they didn’t believe in Jesus.

      The Pharisees prayed, but they didn’t believe in Jesus.

      The Pharisees knew the law, but they didn’t believe in Jesus.

      The only way to please Jesus is by faith.

      Having faith in Jesus is having a pure heart with Him.

      Having faith in Jesus is being made right in God’s eyesight by the righteousness of Jesus.

      We are not being made right in God’s eyesight by our work, which can look right when our hearts may be sinful.

      The Old and the New Testament

      The animal sacrifices in the Old Testament were pointing to God’s son, Jesus Christ, who would be the lamb of God.
