We are Witnesses

Acts 22:14-16

"Then he said: ' The God of our fathers has chosen you to know his will and to see the Righteous One and to hear the words from his mouth. You will be his witness to all men of what you have seen and heard. And now what are you waiting for? Get up, be baptized and wash your sins away, calling on his name.'"

We are Witnesses

I am a witness

An observer

An onlooker

A receiver

I did not do

I saw and heard the works and miracles of the Lord

I did not die on a cross to bear the earths cruelty

I just heard

And I believed

Now who am I to just sit and watch my life go by?

Now who am I to not share what I have seen and heard?

I am a witness

When Christ came into my life

He turned my heart around

Faced it the other direction

And now

I am a witness

We are witnesses that were not made to "Chase our dreams!" or "Do whatever makes us happy!"

This is what the world tells us

However

We are witnesses that are made

To serve our King

To obey when our name is called forth

To spread what we have seen and heard to the ends of the earth

We are witnesses

Hebrews 6:19-20

Ok, so it has been a LONG time since I have updated this blog! Sorry! I stopped writing for a time, and have now started back up again.

These are verses that go along with the poem that follows:

"We have this hope as an anchor for the soul, firm and secure. It enters the inner sanctuary behind the curtain, where Jesus, who went before us, has entered on our behalf. He has become a high priest forever, in the order of Malchizedek." (Hebrews 6:19-20)

now the poem :)

In a forbidden place

is a promise

In a sacred place

is hope

In holy place

is salvation

Unable to enter

Unable to receive

This redemption

There is a man

A most beautiful and wonderful man

Who's name is Jesus

With a tree across his back

Blood streams down His hunched over figure and is shoved to a hill

And on that hill

God ripped the curtain that stood between you and deliverance

From top to bottom that barrier is gone

And open

For you to accept

A promise that is unshakable

Hope that will never die

And salvation that brings you to life
