FUTURE
As
a Christian
Responding
to God's will
And
following his plans
You
need not fear
A
future unknown.
There
is no need to worry
What
your future may hold
For
there is no place
In
your own future
Where
God has not
Already
been!

THE
SOURCE
A
wick separated from its candle
Quickly
ceases to burn;
A
bulb removed from its lam'
Gives
no light to any room;
Even
the brighttest sunshine
Ends
as the earth rotates--
No
form of light can exist
Once
separated from its source.
As
it is with each of these,
We,
too, will cease to shine
If
we separate ourselves
From
the Light who is our Source.

NOT
EQUAL
The
religion of Easter
Does
not equal
Nor
equate to
Christian
faith.
Ritualistic
adherence
To
the traditions of Easter
have
no real bearing
On
the worshipful attitude
Of
commitment to the Resurrected One.

ONE
DEATH
When
Lazarus came back to life,
Resurrected
by Jesus,
He
alone had life returned
And
his death was repeated.
But
when Jesus came back
As
the Resurrected One
Death
gave no repeat performance
And
eternal life was extended
To
all the world.

TO
FIND HAPPINESS
The
world will tell us
There
are many roads
That
lead to happiness.
But
happiness through the workd
Has
no permanence.
We
find it today
And
lose it tomorrow.
True
happiness
And
fulfilling joy
Are
found only in
Relationship
with a living God.
