REDEEMED What makes me, me? Is it the clothes I wear, or my loving family? I love them to life, but you see, there's more to me. I call him dad, friend, and counselor, among other things. HE was here at the beginning, and I'm pretty sure he'll be there at the end of things. HE was that friend that I needed; Sometimes it just felt like HIM and me It may sound cliché, but without HIM I don't know what I would be. I sit and listen to HIM speak like a child during story-time. HE is never too busy to hear my problems; I can expect an answer in due time. There's more to life then money, sex, and things. ALL that will pass away but HIS word ALWAYS remains HIS name is JESUS and yes HE died for me. HE died for us all, those who love and hate HIM. With a love so strong HE allowed the spear to be lost in HIS waist. So what am I? I'm a CHRISTIAN I'M FAR FROM PERFECT SIMPLY REDEEMED JOSHUA

Love

Love Is it really this hard to find? I'm talking about TRUE love; Webster, help me define: an intense feeling of deep affection Intense feeling? Wow, even I was blind. Some say you need commitment and communication Other's say you need a little luck, Money, some "good" sex, and a few exotic vacations NOPE It's so much deeper Have you found it yet? Let me clue you in and don't you forget True love can only be found in Jesus Christ 1John 4:16 say's it You don't want to waste time just for some" good "sex Seek the Man and you'l be fine No need to worry; no need to stress You already have your woman/man True love is the BEST Joshua
