Searching By By Brenda Drake

Truly all I ever searched for is found in the knowledge, and in my decision to follow Jesus. I am now searching the vast wonders of the love of God.   

Searching

Men gather riches in their search for peace,
They explore in many places for wisdom to increase.
They walk many miles making their way in life;
But what they need to search for, is the way of Christ.
Searching for purpose in a world with no lasting future for them;
Searching for the comfort of a lasting friend;
Searching for truth …the meaning of life;
There is constant search for what is wrong and right;
And what does or does not belong;
Searching for the ability to remain young, healthy and strong.
I have good news to tell those that are in the search still;
There is one name that will the whole search fulfill.
Jesus…He is the truth, life and the way.
He is the Prince of peace and your friend to stay.
He is the most strong that all things can do.
He, by His work on the cross-made the way for you.
He is what the soul searches for.
He is King of kings and Lord of lords.
Jesus gives new purpose and is the provision for all your needs.
He the future that shines bright and He is the one that leads.
Jesus is the answer to every need or question within.
He is the One that died and lives and soon comes again.
Man’s search is over when he comes to the cross;
He then will be a light to help assist in the search of the lost.
Eternity ahead shines like diamonds on the streets of gold;
 A forever place where the riches of Christ unfold.
Where youth and vitality remain, for of Christ you are a part;
One forever, in loves light, standing heart to heart.

Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you:
Matthew 7:7

Rely on the Word of God By Brenda Drake

God reveals His love, His provision, His plan and His purpose for us through the Word of God.  If you desire to know Him, read the Word.  If you desire to hear His voice, read the Word. If you need direction, comfort, and strength again I say read the Word.  Hope, faith, and joy are packed into its pages. God promises are rock-solid strong stand on them. When all else has failed you can count on and rely on the Word of God. Jesus is the Word of God that spoke loud from the cross in our behalf. Rely on Him

Rely on the Word of God

Relying of the Word is the way of life,
Of the one who is a follower of Christ.
Jesus is the Word of God that spoke life from the cross.
He offered His life to pay the sin-debt of the lost.
Jesus the Word spoke into all He touched:
Life, increase, compassion, and healing- love.
The wise rely on the promises written in the Word.
They do not lean to their own understanding when trouble occurs.
When sick they depend on the truth to set them free.
As you stand on God’s Word, it stands strong in thee.
When the world tosses and turns with confusing sounds,
The wise run to the Word of God to lift to higher ground.
In the stressful-place of uncertainty, lies, and lying- tongues.
Travel to the pages of God’s wisdom where the truth comes.
Rely on the Word,  rely on Jesus what He says and what He has done.
Rejoice when you His, and prepares a place.
Where peace and joy reside and fear and death are erased.
Rely on His Word given to give you strength,
It is food for the hungry and living-water to drink.
The Word of God is truth, those who adhere to its precepts are wise.
They have a heart full; awake with opened eyes.
They have lamp tended and watch for their Lord’s return.
Because of God’s grace, and their faith, they receive eternal-blessings unearned.

2 Timothy 3:16-17
All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: That the man of God may be perfect, thoroughly furnished unto all good works.

John 1:1-5
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. The same was in the beginning with God. All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made. In him was life; and the life was the light of men. And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not.
