Know Him, Love Him, Share Him
Know Him...
Encouragement from John and Brenda. Thought for your journey:
You are worthy, our Lord and God, to receive glory and honor and power, for you created all things, and by your
will they were created and have their being.
Revelations 4:11
Love Him...
LITTLE JELLY BEANS
Little jelly beans
Tell a story true –
A tale of Father’s love
Just for me and you
Green is for the waving palms.
Blue for the skies above.
Brown for the soft earth where
People sat hearing of His love.
A speckled bean for fish and sand
Red for precious wine –
And Black is for the sin He washed
From your soul and mine.
Purple’s for the sadness of
His family and friends,
And White is for the Glory of the
Day He rose again.
Now you’ve heard the story;
You know what each color means –
The story of our Father’s love
Told by some jellybeans
Share Him...
Come One - Come All!
