STAND UP - REACH OUT - RECEIVE - """""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""" Written by S.C.Mitchell February 2017. """""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""" Stand up my friend - shake off the shackles that have bound You - to their constant memories of pain - and - step out into the Sunshine of God's ever present love - that's calling you - and start To live again - don't let the past dictate your future any more - but Breath deeply the New life - that is being offered you - a life Wherein you can be free of chains - that bind you to Your past - and steal your liberty ...... Yes - stand up my friend - and let the Son of God - entirely set you free. Reach out my friend - and grasp the hand now freely offered you - a Hand that doesn't wave goodbye - nor let you go - a hand that knows The pain of cruel nails - that held them to a wooden beam - to pay the Price for you and me - and yet - those same scarred hands can Draw us from the deepest pits of sin and shame - and help us Soar with Him - into the heavenly realms - above life's Sorrows - storms - and earthly pain .... So - yes my friend - reach out and grasp the hand Of Him - who calls each one of us - by name. Receive my friend - all that the Saviour is now giving you for Free - we cannot earn such love - nor can we bridge the way to Father God - by works - or sacrifice - or by our merit or degree - No - it Is Finished - at the cross - and now the Door is open wide - and whosoever Will - may come - and freely step inside - into the open arms of Jesus Christ - Our Lord - and Heavenly Guide - whose plans for us are for our good - To give us Life and hope - for all Eternity .... So now - my friend - Stand up - Reach out - Receive - From Him - whose love is reaching out to you today - To heal - restore - and welcome you - into His - Forever - Glorious - Home - And Family. """"""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""" Just recently God has given me the privilege to reach out to people who many would reject or overlook , but since I have heard of some of some of their life stories I see them through His compassionate eyes . God does not turn away any who reach out to Him in the depth of their need , and He never will. My prayer today is that many will reach out to the wonderful Saviour , and receive His mercy , love, and healing grace , and will have a brand new start that will last from today into eternity . God bless you all With love from Stella X Vote for this poem
