The world just might appease us,
But the greater One is Jesus.
People say, “God’s a fool!
Our ways are slick and cool.”
But we say, “God is smart!
He knows how to do His part.”
So give your life to Him.
Repent and turn from sin.
Your life is in God’s hands.
He is in command.
But the choice still remains yours.
Will you open or shut the door?
The God of all creation
Gives you an invitation.
Hear the voice of Christ.
To whom will you give your life?
But the greater One is Jesus.
People say, “God’s a fool!
Our ways are slick and cool.”
But we say, “God is smart!

So give your life to Him.
Repent and turn from sin.
Your life is in God’s hands.
He is in command.
But the choice still remains yours.
Will you open or shut the door?
The God of all creation
Gives you an invitation.
Hear the voice of Christ.
To whom will you give your life?

Author's note: This poem was written by my eight-year old son, and after he had written it, my oldest daughter helped him smooth it out. The poems in this blog were written by my children, ages seven through fifteen . The "Why This Blog" post explains how the Lord inspired these poems in answer to a prayer during illness. Please also see America, Turn Back to God. I also recommend visiting my children's blog, A Brush with Life, where you will also find beautiful art they have drawn for the glory of God.You can access my complete blog directory at "Writing for the Master." Now I'd like to ask a very important question.
Do You Want to Know Him?
If you want to know Jesus personally, you can. It all begins when you repent and believe in Jesus. Do you know what God's Word, the Bible says?
“Jesus came into Galilee, preaching the gospel of God, and saying, ‘The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand; repent and believe in the gospel.’” (Mar 1:14b-15). He preached that we must repent and believe.
Please see my explanation of this in my post called "Do You Want to Know Jesus?"
