The Great Exchange I'm doing an Exchange with Jesus I'm doing an Exchange with Jesus Trading in my toxins, trading in my pain Trading in my stains for Your gain Trading in my sorrows' and exchanging it For Jesus unconditional love Trading in my old life and Exchanging it for new life Trading in my pain Has released me from my pain To receive His love for me Trading my despair For His Care Trading my sorrow's Trading my sadness For His Gladness He washed my sins away And Exchanged it for the Joy of the Lord To be my strength for the day I trade, I exchange All to You Jesus My life, My kidney disease I trade in every dark spot in me And exchange it for Your Light For Your unconditional Love for me. I've done my exchange with Jesus My friend is Jesus Jesus can be your friend too Just ask Him to be your friend And He will come near to you today And you will NEVER be alone again my Darling |

I'll say we're privileged to make such exchanges with Jesus. We give Him our trash and He gives us His loving best. Great entry poem. Welcome to the family of friends. God bless, Rae |

Thanks Rae, I like that perpetive on it! I'm a dialysis patient and have to do 4 exchanges a day and I believe God gave me a new revelation on how to look at life while doing this. I like that word "trash" that's a good word. Blessings to you you have any writings I could read? Elaine |

Elaine, Welcome to Passions! I can well understand how a trial such as yours would bring you to not only a mental exchange with God, but also how to deal with life on a daily basis. I hope you will continue to be strong in your faith, as well as in your health, and that what you might need, will come to you timely. I will also be looking forward to reading many more poems of yours, both here in Spiritual and in other forums, as well. Please check your email for a Very Special Greeting! " It matters not this distance now " Excerpt, Yesterday's Love ~*~ KRJ |

Dear Elaine, I was so glad to read your poem here. Welcome to our friendship circle. What a wonderful way to spend what would otherwise be a very tiresome time. Your enthusiasm is contagious. Love, Joyce |
