2009

It is now the year 2009,

And this indeed is our time,
To turn our eyes on the Divine,
And in Him walk the line.

Let us come in repentance,

For leaving so much of our lives to chance,
So often we have done things our way,
Yet we have been saved by He who is the Way.

So let us this year be led into truth,

By He who is the way, the life and truth,
We need to be cleansed deep within,
The wheat from the tares he's separating.

Through this year He will us refine,

Taking us through His refiner’s fire,
For surely He wants us to refire,
So let us with our groom come and dine.

He is calling the bride to holiness,

In all situations showing thankfulness,
For this is the year to drink new wine,
It is the year to exalt the Divine.

I pray this speaks to many believers this year, but for those
who do not know Jesus, there is still time to respond and ask
Him to forgive you of your sins. We need to get the
important things right in 2009, a year which seems to have
much uncertainty, rumors of war, financial crisis, weather
changes. Friends you and I need to get it right with Jesus.
