Jewels

We are jewels in His crown. He is worthy.

we are guests at His banquet. He is worthy.

He chose us.

He’s worthy. Jesus is worthy.

He’s worthy of it all:

my adoration, my respect, my worship,

worthy of ruling all creation.

He is worthy.

To step so low from such a height

to reach the lowest of us,

to connect His heart to ours, He is worthy.

I’m glad to be a jewel in His crown. I’m glad

and hope to be a guest at His wedding feast.

I will be glad to lay my crown

down before Him, for He is worthy.

enough poem

I ain’t fast enough. I ain’t tough enough. I ain’t rough enough,

but I know Who Is.

I didn’t eat enough, I didn’t drink enough, I didn’t work enough

but I know Who does.

I didn’t rest enough, but I know who does. But I know who did.

Jesus is my King. Jesus is my Lord.

He didn’t just save me.

He rules my life

I gave him my cord.

////

I ain’t fast enough. I Ain’t tough enough, I ain’t gruff enough,

but I know who is.

I ain’t funny enough, I ain’t wise enough, I ain’t smart enough.

But I know who is.

I ain’t stubborn enough, I ain’t stubborn enough, I ain’t thoughtful enough.

But I know who Is.

Jesus is my king. Jesus is my Lord.

He rules my life.

He lifts me high, He lifts me to Him

he lifts me high. He lifts me to Him.

Fill me up

You are what fills me up. You fill my cup to overflowing.

You fill my gas tank. You fill my engine and rev me to the red line.

You trick me out. You give me gadgets beyond my understanding.

You let me fiddle, and play, and

teach me how to use them.

You direct their use

///

You fill me up. I empty myself every day

to spread Your Spirit

to spread You and

shine You to others.

You fill me up

///

You fill me to the brim, overflowing

You are my gas, my fuel, my engine

You are my oil, the source of of what I shine

my fuel

You fill me up every day

I spread what you give and

You only give more.

More to give

more to spread. There is only more

You fill me up

The Good News

Good news.

There is more than this life.

There’s more than just the flesh.

And the ones who made it all

flesh, and spirit, and everything,

pay for every mistake

that we ever did, or could make.

Those mistakes separate us from Him

and He paid for them.

He covered our bill.

//

The One who created all good things,

wants to give us better things

If we want to be with Him,

though being with Him is the best.

The doorway through which we enter

is His Son.

This is the good news.
