I Fell In Love With Jesus
by Meagan (recited by Jenny)
~
I fell in Love with Jesus as I began to pray
He came to me in a moment when I called on His Name
I fell in love with Jesus
and in my heart I heard Him say
“My daughter, I have loved you before you were ever born
and now I am so happy
that you have taken notice of my love for you
and how much you are adored!”
~~~~~
I fell in love with Jesus
as I began to praise and
worship Him as my Saviour
and fell on my knees to pray
I fell in love with Jesus
with my hands raised
to reach up to Him for help
and was given more than I can say
~~~~~
He has changed my whole heart
inside and out and
filled the empty spaces with His Love
I cried and cried
to asked His forgiveness
for not realizing it before
of how much He sacrificed
to make my life worth living for
~~~~~
He showers me with love
like a spring time rain
and gives me all I ask Him for
by the power of His name!
He holds me close
whenever I'm unsure
and tells me that He's there for me
and will always stay the same
~~~~~
I fell in love with Jesus
and I gave him all of me
He took what I gave
and made me into something
I could never be without Him
I was nothing according to the word
but with Him I am loved
completely and wonderfully free

Restoration
by Jim Harris
~
He restores my soul!
By gracious means he makes me whole,
receives, reshapes, renews, restarts
my inward life, whose several parts
by disobedience and neglect
had run aground, completely wrecked.
~
He brings me back!
Directs me to the safest track.
In subtle ways he turns me round
and takes me back to well-trod ground;
the paths I learned at first to walk,
the words I used at first to talk.
~
He lights my fire!
Rekindles in me strong desire
to worship him with all my heart,
and not withhold a single part
from serving him and loving him,
my Shepherd, Saviour, and my King.

Hello! My name is Jim Harris! This poem, which I’ve called “Restoration”, was written when I was in France in 2003. Struggling to read the Bible in French I was made aware of the subtleties in that seemingly simple word ‘restores’, found in Psalm 23, verse 3 ‘He restores my soul’. Here’s what I wrote about that word at the time. ‘The word ‘restore’ carries more than one meaning. A ‘restaurant’ is where you replenish your energy levels by taking food. Restore also means to put something back into its original condition, or someone back into a broken relationship. It can also be used for stirring something into life, like the old coal fires we used to have. These three verses, based on Psalm 23:3, ‘He restores my soul’, try to reflect these three ideas about our relationship with the Good Shepherd.’ You can view more of Jim's verse at his website ~

Mary's Story
~
What a Friend We Have in Jesus
What a friend we have in Jesus,
all our sins and griefs to bear!
What a privilege to carry
everything to God in prayer!
O what peace we often forfeit,
O what needless pain we bear,
all because we do not carry
everything to God in prayer.
John 3:16 - God loved the world this way:
He gave his only Son
so that everyone
who believes in him
will not die
but will have
eternal life.

I Have Decided To Follow Jesus
as sung by K
~
I have decided to follow Jesus;
I have decided to follow Jesus;
I have decided to follow Jesus;
No turning back, no turning back.

Tho' none go with me, I still will follow,
Tho' none go with me I still will follow,
Tho' none go with me, I still will follow;
No turning back, no turning back.
~
My cross I'll carry, till I see Jesus;
My cross I'll carry till I see Jesus,
My cross I'll carry till I see Jesus;

The world behind me, the cross before me;
The world behind me, the cross before me;
No turning back, no turning back.

“‘Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls.”
Matthew 11:28-29 (New International Version)
Come
by Sue Goodall
~
''Come,'' He said.
''I love you,'' He said.
~
As I felt myself steadily led
To the place at His feet where -
In my head;
In my heart;
In my soul;
I knew so well.
This was the place I should always have been.
~
''Come,'' He said.
''I love you,'' He said.
''I come,'' I said
''I love you,'' I said.

Be Thou My Vision
(as sung by Julie McMinn)
Be thou my vision, O Lord of my heart,
naught be all else to me, save that thou art;
Thou my best thought by day or by night,
Waking or sleeping, thy presence my light.
----------
Be thou my wisdom, thou my true word,
I ever with thee and thou with me Lord;
Thou my great Father, I thy true son;
Thou in me dwelling, and I with thee one.
----------
Be thou my breastplate, sword for the fight;
Be thou my dignity, thou my delight;
Thou my soul's shelter, thou my high tower:
Raise thou me heavenward, O Power of my power.
----------
Riches I heed not, nor man's empty praise:
Thou mine inheritance now and always;
Thou and thou only first in my heart;
High King of Heaven, my treasure thou art.
----------
High King of heaven, my victory won,
May I reach heaven's joys, O Bright Heaven's sun!;
Heart of my own heart, whatever befall,
Still be my vision, O Ruler of all.

My Jesus
Almost everybody has an opinion of the man Jesus Christ! Countless millions worship him today and down through history! People sometimes ask me "Who is my Jesus?" So, let me answer that briefly - "Who is my Jesus?"
My Jesus Christ, is the man who splits history BC & AD! The man who we claim is the messiah and saviour as spoken about by the prophets of old and written about by those who met Him...
My Jesus Christ, the man who healed the sick, fought for justice, did many great deeds, filled with compassion, driven on by joy and in constant conversation with God the Father.
My Jesus Christ, is the man who claimed to be God and was God! Jesus who emptied Himself, made Himself nothing, so as to take on human form. Jesus Christ, fully human and yet fully God.
My Jesus Christ, is the most amazing man who ever lived, born of a woman, in a humble stable. Jesus Christ, the man born to die that he may come back alive and give all people a chance to live forever.
My Jesus Christ, is the man who died on a grubby Roman cross, pierced, battered, bruised and scarred. Jesus Christ, the God-man who died physically. Jesus Christ, buried within and sealed into a cold empty tomb.
My Jesus Christ, is the man who conquered death, came back alive as witnessed by uncountable others. Jesus Christ who defeated the sting of sin, so that humanity may choose to live forever!
My Jesus Christ, whose very death and resurrection we celebrate at Easter, who ascended to the right hand of God the Father. This Jesus Christ, who with the Father, sent the Holy Spirit to transform into His own image, all who choose to follow Him.
My Jesus Christ, who covers His followers in His own robe of righteousness so that they would be acceptable to God the Father.
Jesus Christ, coming again soon in glory to judge humanity and claim those who follow Him. Jesus Christ who calls to you and I "Come and follow!"
Why I am a christian
If that's my Jesus Christ, why am I a Christian and identify myself as such?
The Apostle John, writing in 1 John 5:9-12 - "We accept man's testimony, but God's testimony is greater because it is the testimony of God, which he has given about his Son. Anyone who believes in the Son of God has this testimony in his heart. Anyone who does not believe God has made him out to be a liar, because he has not believed the testimony God has given about his Son. And this is the testimony: God has given us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. He who has the Son has life; he who does not have the Son of God does not have life."
The reason that I am a Christian is not because I chased God, but rather He chased me
I am a Christian Disciple not because of anything I have done, but rather because He first chased me, and because He first loved me. Jesus himself said "I came to seek and to save the lost" (Luke 19v10). God was chasing me and following my every path with the urgency of a lover after the beloved, just as described in the Song of Songs 2v2-14.
If you are a Christian today, it is not because of anything you have done. It is because of the events at Christmas and Easter that you are a Christian, when God entered this world as a human baby and took all the necessary steps so that all people could have the choice to be His people or not. In my more smug moments I used to congratulate myself for being a Christian. How proud I was that I, was a Christian and that God was a jolly lucky God that I had decided to follow Him. It was during one of my less self-deluded moments, that I examined myself and I found God pricking my conscience and correcting me, and I read the New Testament "For the Son of Man came, not to be served but to serve and give His life as a ransom for many" (Mark10v45).
Jesus calls you
This Jesus, my Jesus, also calls you!
Immediately Jesus made the disciples get into the boat and go on ahead of him to the other side, while he dismissed the crowd. After he had dismissed them, he went up on a mountainside by himself to pray. When evening came, he was there alone, but the boat was already a considerable distance from land, buffeted by the waves because the wind was against it. During the fourth watch of the night Jesus went out to them, walking on the lake. When the disciples saw him walking on the lake, they were terrified. "It's a ghost," they said, and cried out in fear. But Jesus immediately said to them: "Take courage! It is I. Don't be afraid."
"Lord, if it's you," Peter replied, "tell me to come to you on the water."
"Come," he said. hen Peter got down out of the boat, walked on the water and came toward Jesus. But when he saw the wind, he was afraid and, beginning to sink, cried out, "Lord, save me!" Immediately Jesus reached out his hand and caught him. "You of little faith," he said, "why did you doubt?" And when they climbed into the boat, the wind died down. hen those who were in the boat worshiped him, saying, "Truly you are the Son of God." Matthew 14:22-33
If you would not call yourself a Christian today, and this Jesus appeals to you, this Jesus who speaks with authority, and you want to become a Christian there are three simple steps to follow. Firstly, admit that you have done wrong against God and His ways. Secondly, believe and trust in Jesus. Call on Him, receive, trust, obey and worship Him, recognizing Him for who He is and what He has done. Lastly, confess Jesus as your Lord and Saviour. Once sin has been confessed, and Jesus is believed in and trusted as Saviour, then you are a Christian. Now you are ready as Peter writes in the Bible, "to grow in grace and knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ" (2 Peter 3:18). Welcome to the family of God. God has chosen you; Jesus has paid for you and has put His mark within you through His Spirit (Ephesians 1:1-13).
