“Words of Wisdom, My Gift from God”

By Frances Holloway

With God you can be an overcomer!
Are you unhappy and weary of the life you are living?
Are you in need of a change?
Do you need a savior?

I have good news for you!
God is still in control!
Jesus is still our savior!
Miracles are still accomplished by him every day!
He has a plan for you!

According to the ways of this world
I thought I was popular and in control.
I wasnt popular, nor was I in control of anything.
I was very lost.

I asked Jesus into my heart and life
He did many miracles in my life.
Im a different person now, and Jesus is my best friend.

He can do the same for you!
Jesus has put many lessons in my heart,
in poetry form.
They are a precious and valuable gift.

Embrace Grace

We should embrace grace,

for it is a gift from our heavenly father.

It’s perfect and free,

a gift like no other.

God did for us what we didn’t deserve.

He gave us life, hope,

freedom, and a home in heaven, reserved.

He lovingly came down and left heavenly treasures.

God has a compassionate love for us.

He forgives, and our sins never measure

so that we can be a family in him and always be together.

His love is strong enough to bring us through all time,

seasons, and weather.

If God had no love for us,

our punishment for sins would not let us stand.

He is a God of love,

he took on flesh of man.

He said, "I have many treasures;

my grace I give to you.

You can take or reject it."

I’ll tell you what I do;

I thank him for his love and grace

that for me he made a place.

Apple of His Eye

Jesus is my Redeemer.

In him I have a new start.

I’m the apple of his eye.

I’m hidden in his heart;

he is watching over me.

I’m the image of this sort,

though my substance is dirt.

I’ll be tried as gold and free.

I have my Father’s promise;

he will never forsake or leave me.

The trials surround me.

We will never be apart,

because God so loves me.

He lives within my heart.

Give Me Your Heart,  

 I’ll Make It Pure

A Savior came from heaven

to take the burden that I bore.

I was without hope

and my troubles very sore.

For a while I thought I was all right

and didn’t need a cure.

Things got worse,

and gradually I wasn’t sure.

My life just went from bad to worse,

clearly I could see a dark, dark curse.

I somehow knew there was only one way out.

I asked my Lord to turn my direction about.

He knew my name and what I had done,

yet he called me child, my little one.

He said, "Give me your heart, I’ll make it pure.

Give me your sins; that I’ll endure.

I’m Jesus, the great I Am.

For you, I died.

I am the Lamb."

A New Heart

Lord,
