Why Not? By Brenda Drake

            We hear grumbling and complaining on every side.  We whine about the condition of the world and yet will not change our little part of the world.  Why not? If we truly desire a better world we need to not be a part of the problem. Lord soften our heart and give us eyes to see and to hear the truth that will set us free to better serve You.

If the heart aches and the worries of life astound,
Why not take them to the Cross and lay them down?
If the commandments of God you agree is true,
Why not allow the One that gave them abide in you?
If you feel tension in the world and you strive happiness and peace
Why not place aside prejudices that cause stress to increase?
If you recognize your sins and you see you fall short of the mark,
Why not repent and accept what the Father sent from His heart?
Why not kiss the hem of the garment of the Lord Jesus Christ?
And in return lay down your own life?
I ask you why not, because so many I see,
Only goes so far and still they are not set free.
Why not let go and give your life to Jesus the King?
For if you fail to go this far, you have missed everything.

Hebrew 3:7-8
Wherefore (as the Holy Ghost saith, To day if ye will hear his voice,
Harden not your hearts,:
