He walked many miles,and spoke countless words.
He suffered many things,to have His message heard.
He taught of love,kindness,forgiveness,and fear.
He healed many bodies,and dried countless tears.
His love brought Him down from heaven,to earth,
To teach all His children,what His Father is worth.
Facing many fears,He prayed to His Father above.
He knew His purpose..He must prove His love.
For your lost soul,and for the sins you've done,
He faced down the devil,and our Saviour won !
Each drop of blood that fell to the ground,
Told satan that God's children would not be bound.
And as Jesus strained to see the crowd,
Bearing His pierced hands and thorny crown,
His heart,just faintly beating now.
He prayed to God to forgive them somehow.
The hate and deceit in the evil hearts of men,
Sent our glorious Saviour back to heaven again.
He drew His final breath,as He gave up the Ghost.
He lowered His head,and left His earthly host.
With His body laid in a tomb,all hope seemed lost.
But I tell you the truth,He did not stop at that cross !!
This miracle...this man,the Lord of Hosts.
Breathed life in again,and from his grave He arose !
He boldly put His feet back on the ground,
Where days before,His blood could be found.
He spoke,He shared,He loved and blessed,
This man who was slain and laid to rest.
He has not stopped ...even one single day.
He will not give up till all are saved.
And though satan tried,his battle was lost.
Because Jesus Christ will not stop at the cross.
So...choose wisely of what is right,please do not become lost,
Rejoice in His life,and don't stop Him on the cross.

Hey Gidget!! This one almost slipped off the page....almost. I'm glad I didn't miss this one. This is excellent! I just love the line, "He don't stop at the cross."

That one line alone says so much! This has a lot of meaning, and packs a heck of a message  

Hope to see around soon...
