OH BELOVED CHRISTIAN,

HOW LONG AND HARD YOU'VE PRAYED,

HOW OFTEN IN THE DEAD OF NIGHT,

UPON  ON YOUR KNEES YOU'VE STAYED

THE NIGHTS HAVE GROWN TO WEARY WEEKS

THE WEEKS TO LONELY YEARS,

THE PAGES OF GOD'S WORDS YOU'VE CLAIMED,

ARE OFTEN STAINED WITH TEARS,

HOW OFTEN THOSE AROUND YOU,

HAVE HEARD AS YOU'VE CRIED OUT

AND SOME HAVE SEEN YOUR WEARINESS , AS YOU BEGAN TO DOUBT,

DOES GOD NOT HEAR THE DEVIL ASKS,TO TEMPT YOU HE DRAWS  NEAR,

PERHAPS YOUR GODS NOT LISTENING, PERHAPS HE CANNOT HEAR,

OH DEAR ONE YOUR LOVING GOD, HAS HEARD YOUR EVERY PRAYER,

NEVER  FOR A MOMENT DOUBT ,  HOW MUCH YOUR LORD DOTH CARE

HE COULD HAVE ANSWERD LONG AGO, EACH CRY HE COULD BUT HEED,

BUT HAD HE ANSWERD EVERY ONE,  YOU'D NOT HAVE'D  WHAT YOU NEED

YOU NEED TO KNOW HIM BETTER, HE COULD HAVE ANSWERD FROM THE START

HE COULD HAVE GIVEN YOU WHAT YOU ASKED FOR,

BUT HE CHOSE THE BETTER PART

KEEP PRAYING CHILD, KEEP PRAYING, EACH DAY YOUR FAITH WILL GROW

THE MORE YOU KEEP ON PRAYING, THE MORE OF HIM YOU'LL KNOW

THE MORE YOU KEEP ON PRAYING, YOUR LOVE FOR HIM WILL GROW

PLEASE pray for my nephews family...my wifes sisters son......36 yrs old was in a motorcycle accident today he was on life support but was just now pronouced to have passed on from this world....
and now his mom will suffer much guilt for at times saying she wished that would happen to him....
and it has started a family war of problems and trouble of all sorts....she had not spoken to Patrick in over 2 years......me and my wife have remained friends with him so his mom did not associate with us anymore.....a sad situation...turned to tragedy...and now ...we must all put that behind and go on ...looking at the eternakl thigs that really count and forget all this wordly stuff hatred and like...pray that we will all now LIVE as never before...with Gods light shining upon all the living..
Patrick paid a dear price......and now it must stop! We must stop the hurting....which is only possible
through our lord Jesus Christ !...have you heard this song....Powerful lyrics..its become my alltime favorite! Do you know it?


             FEEL THE NAILS                                       
                                                                      JEFF & SHERI   EASTER


THEY TELL ME JESUS DIED FOR MY TRANSGESSIONS
AND THAT HE PAID THAT PRICE A LONG LONG TI ME AGO
WHEN HE GAVE HIS LIFE FOR ME,  ON A HILL  CALLED CALVARY
BUT THERE'S SOMETHING ELSE I WANT TO KNOW

DOES HE STILL FEEL THE NAILS, EVERYTIME I FAIL
DOES HE HEAR THE CROWD CRY CRUCIFY AGAIN
AM I CAUSING HIM PAIN,THEN I KNOW I'VE GOT TO CHANGE
I JUST CAN'T BEAR  THE THOUGHT, OF HURTING HIM

IT SEEMS THAT IM SO GOOD..............AT BREAKING PROMISES
AND I TREAT HIS PRECIOUS  GRACE..................SO CARELESSLY
BUT EACH TIME HE FORGIVES. . . .OH WHAT IF HE RELIVES
THE AGONY HE FELT, ON THAT TREE

DOES HE STILL FEEL THE NAILS, EVERYTIME I FAIL
DOES HE HEAR THE CROWD CRY CRUCIFY, AGAIN
AM I CAUSING HIM PAIN,THEN I KNOW I'VE GOT TO CHANGE
I JUST CAN'T BEAR  THE THOUGHT OF HURTING HIM

HO-LY HO-LY HOLY IS  THE LORD
HO-LY HO-LY HOLY IS THE LORD

DO YOU  STILL FEEL THE NAILS, EVERYTIME I FAIL
HAVE I CRUCIFIED YOU JESUS,  WITH MY SIN
OH I'M TIRED OF PLAYIN GAMES
I REALLY WANT TO CHANGE
I NEVER WANT TO HURT YOU AGAIN....
YES  I'M TIRED OF PLAYIN GAMES
I REALLY WANT TO CHANGE
CAUSE I NEVER WANT TO HURT YOU,....... AGAIN


PraISE YAHWEH ON THIS THE HOLY OF HOLY DAYS !....AMEN
