August 25 ... Rise To New Life


Let all those who trust in You rejoice;
let them sing and shout for joy!
Psalm 5:11


As we rise to new life,
resolving to leave sin's pleasures behind,
we will find such pure delight
and wonder why it took so long.

For the joys that Jesus gives
cannot even compare
to the worldly counterfeits
and the tinsel that is there.

It's His life that satisfies
and brings to us true pleasure.
Only as we walk with Him
will we find real purpose.

We've been made to want to know Him,
and the searching will go on
until all our lives we've given
to the Lord and Cornerstone.

If there's still a struggle in you,
make your choices now.
You will not be disappointed
that you chose the straight and narrow,
because HE is there!


Romans 15:13; Psalm 5:11-12; I John 5:5; Psalm 63:5; 144:15; I Peter 2:6-7; 
Matthew 7:13; Jude 24-25
