He Did it All for You By Brenda Drake

There is no greater feeling than the moment we truly realize Jesus suffered and died for us.  The wages of sin is death; He paid the debt we could never pay.  Because He lives we are able to live a life set free from sin and forever blessed.  The truth is; He did it all for you!

He Did it All for You

Mary poured her life’s earnings on Jesus head,
An unknown man prepared a place at the Master’s request.
Judas made the decision to plan,
The betrayal of the Son of man.
The disciples listened but did not hear,
They followed but soon ran away in fear.
Jesus prayed in the garden; by himself set aside,
He wept with great agony inside.
Peter along with his friends,
Slept and could not keep watch with Him
Judas arrived with a great crowd of men,
With the sign of a kiss he directed them.
Like a pure innocent lamb,
They angrily delivered the Son of man;
Into a biased court to be crucified;
Jesus God’s Son for each of them would die.
Peter was reminded of the Master’s prediction,
That he would deny Him with great conviction.
The world about us is doing the same things,
Some serve, some deny, and some betray the King.
But the truth is Jesus loved us all so much,
He died and rose again to administer His touch.
His touch forgives and makes new,
All that hear and believe; He did it all for you.

John 3:16
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

1 John 2:2
And he is the propitiation for our sins: and not for ours only, but also for the sins of the whole world.

He Bears Your Burden By Brenda Drake

Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest..Popular New Testament passage

   When we forget Jesus is in control, we get weighed down with the niggling, real and not real irritations that cause life to be harder than it needs to be.   I have found that no matter what  the issue things are much better after prayer; not because things have changed but because my outlook has changed.  Now with faith instead of doubt, and hope instead of despair, instead of trying to handle things my own strength I trust God to take care of things.  

He Bears Your Burden

Every-day troubles – the ones that always hang around;
If allowed will surely weigh you down.
Every-day worries and concerns also do,
Very harmful things inside of you.
Sins of the past with certain regrets,
Make for unpleasant days ahead.
The future beckons with possibility,
But if fear and dread your way accompanies,
Life becomes a task endured most of the time;
Not at all what the Father has for you designed.
Jesus is Life, and He is the Way,
He died for you and your wage of sin paid.
Jesus gives peace for the soul.
He is Prince of Peace when allowed control.
He is the way to life new.
He administers His strength to you.
He is the One that your burdens bear;
For He truly for you cares.
He will never leave or forsake you.
He has plan for a future rich in hope and joy too.

Jeremiah 29:11
For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the Lord, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end.

Matthew 11:29-30
Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.
