Cool to Jesus' Words?

God forbid,

And God forbid that such a thing

Should continue with us uncorrected.

Without a keeping of these words,

How can we hope to be protected

From the inevitable devils

Of misfortune and suffering?

Besides an act of sheer disobedience

To what God expects us to do,

There is this,

Something we can't afford to miss:


"If a man love me, he will keep my words:
and my Father will love him,
and we will come unto him,
and make our abode with him".


Jesus was not a man who went about

Saying things because he had nothing

Better to do!

What our Master said,

He meant,

Meant it to be loved, lived

By each and every follower.

So, in our daily praying

For mankind, and for ourselves,

Let us ask God to help us not forget,

                                  never neglect,

Christ Jesus' holy sayings --

A heaven-bestowed treasure,

Priceless beyond all measure.
