EYES OF A BUTTERFLY

(By: Mary E. Adams)

My eyes are open this bright sunny day

there in the distance, cows munch new-mown hay.

Birds sing songs and squirrels make a chatter

Yet to some who choose to...it really doesn't matter.


Who cares that babies love Moms and Moms their own?

that feet walk for miles to share a Jesus they've known,

Generous hearts give silently to others in need,

Take time to comfort many hearts with a Seed.


Praying and fasting, reaching out to the sinner

Walking the extra mile before they have dinner.

The world is not worthy of such, it is said

who've given cold water and hungry mouths fed.


Ignored and forgotten, suffering whispers of scorn

praying for enemies, keeping sore knees worn.

Loving the sinner, hating the sin,

Owing nothing but love, to ungodly men.


But if I so choose, I can see cloudy skies

things in disorder, no truth...all lies.

Nobody doing things according to rules

all become ignorant and lustful fools.


No good in the world...no one doing right,

a hopeless situation...all is dark and no light.

Perched on a precipice and looking about,

Sitting in judgment in religious clout.


Waiting for judgment and wrath to descend,

A "hurry up" wish, the whole world He would rend.

Sitting and waiting for the end to appear

spouting dire warning for all ears to hear.


Prophets like Jonah, sure God should not spare 

a city called Ninevah, nor would He even care.

Miserable and sad, no joy in their soul

waiting for the end and enduring the cold.


Poor souls in misery with time on this earth

Almost despising the day of their birth.

God help them to see through His eyes of Love,

that everything good will come from above.


He'll finish it all according to plan,

Bruise Satan's head and hold us in His hand.

Then welcome the good, faithful servant with glee,

"Well done my child....now come with Me".

Are you at peace with God?  If not, you can be. Do you know what awaits you when you die? You can have the assurance from God that heaven will be your home, if you would like to be certain. You can even have that assurance RIGHT NOW!  Either Jesus Christ died for your sins, or He didn't (He did!). Are you prepared to stand before God on the Judgment Day and tell Him that you didn't need the shed blood of Jesus Christ on the Cross to have your sins forgiven and get in right-standing with God? We plead with you...please don't make such a tragic mistake. 

To get to know God, to be at peace with God, to have your sins forgiven, to make certain heaven will be your home for eternity, to make certain that you are in right-standing with God right now ... please click here to help you understand the importance of being reconciled to God. What you do about being reconciled to God will determine where you will spend eternity, precious one. Your decision to be reconciled to God is the most important decision you'll ever make in this life, because in Christ, it is impossible to put a value on the worth of your soul in light of eternity.

PLEASE HELP US HELP YOU SHARE THE BEST NEWS GOD HAS FOR EVERY PERSON BECAUSE...

JESUS DID IT! and...

YOU ARE SO GREATLY NEEDED!

Remember: All that we do in this life comes back to our God-given purpose which is to serve and glorify God. The money and assets we accumulate, the fame and power we've attained or seek to attain - all of the things of this nature will one day pass away, but those lives of others we impact for Jesus Christ will last for eternity, and we will be rewarded for the part we helped play by impacting those lives ... for eternity. (Matthew 6:19-21 is our assurance)
