Look To The Father


Look at those nail scarred hands Look at the man who is no longer in the grave look at the victory won! Look at the grave with the stone rolled away! Look at these broken chains; oh just look to the Father! The grave is empty. the chains are gone. the price has been paid in full! In the highs and lows, look to the Father! On the mountaintops and in the valleys low, look to the Father! In the chaos of life when nothing seems to make sense, look to the Father. So we shall fix our eyes upon you Lord and stand in awe and wonder of you because of what you have done for us! Let us not only gaze upon the beauty of the Lord but also to look at those nail scarred hands, look to the risen King, look at the victory won for you and me at the cross at Calvary!!! God is not dead, for he has risen and he has risen indeed! HE'S ALIVE! HE'S ALIVE! Alleluia!!! Soli Deo Gloria!

Just tryna' write poetry that always glorifies God and who He is, what he has done for me, and what He can and will do for you! If God can transform my life, I know without a doubt he can transform yours too! You are NEVER too far gone, or broken for God! Come to Jesus just as you are and give your life to him and watch the change happen when you turn to Jesus and live for Him!! Being a Christian is never easy, just as life isn't easy, but our only hope is in Jesus Christ the one and only!!
