The Way of the Cross

The way of the cross is not easy and smooth,
But Jesus is there to travel with you.
He'll not leave you to fight the battles alone,
But strengthen you from His heavenly throne.

Chritians of old have followed that Way,
They've been beaten and bruised and cast far away.
Although they were rejected by land and by sea,
To You alone did they bend their knee.

Help me, dear Lord to carry my cross,
To follow the Way no matter the cost;
To step out in faith and follow you plan
Even though I may not always understand!

A Poem

Lessons by the Death Bed

Sitting by her bedside,

Holding tight her hand,

Thinking of the Spirit inside

Who's fleeing for Christ's land.

Wondering what it feels like,

Hoping she's not in pain,

Praying that through her Savior's might

She'll reap the heavenly gain.

Wanting to go with her,

Knowing it's not my time,

Trying to keep my life so pure

While waiting for what's mine.

Living for Jesus all of my life

Regretting none of my days,

Keeping in tune to my Savior's voice,

Until I'm in heavenly rays.

Inspired by my Great-Grandma who went to be with Jesus last Wednesday.
