"GOD IS READY!"
© 1998 Patricia L. Carpenter
{Poem Book 3}
All your 'woes' *
& all your 'troubles', *
Bring to GOD *
on the 'double'!
Don't wait until
they weigh you down, *
Or wear them around your
neck till you drown! *
'Run' to Him
with all your might,
Don't stand aloof *
full of fear & fright. *
Have 'confidence' in God's just Hand *
He's full of 'Mercy' & 'Grace', *
He's waiting for you to come just now *
to look upon His 'Shining' Face.
If you've sinned & feel ashamed
just 'humbly' bow before His Throne, *
Admit you've sinned against Him *
& you'll not be left all alone.
God is ready to 'forgive'
if we'll just speak the word: *
"I've repented of my sin today!"
then run & bow before your Lord.
You'll find His Arms are open wide *
to receive you to Himself,
Your 'love' for Him is stronger now *
& you've died some more - unto your 'self'!
AMEN!
