Day #14 Someone I Can't Imagine My Life Without

FEELINGS

BY: REX ALLEN SNYDER 11-07-06

I don’t wake up every morning … and see God’s beauty in my eyes

I’m not always nice and friendly … no matter how I try

I don’t always feel like reading … my Bible every day

And many times I pretend I’m broke … when tithes I need to pay

When the church doors are all opened … Sometimes I stay at home

I don’t always feel a need to go … cause my mind will only roam

When the preacher’s sermon goes on and on … and on, and on, and on

I feel that I’d be better off … if I were fishing at the pond

I don’t feel much like paying bills … or going to work each day

I don’t feel the need to get out of bed … when my alarm clock starts to play

But, I thank God my souls not saved … based on how I feel

God is the same day after day … his word is true and real

He sent his son as a sacrifice … to save those who are lost

I can only guess how Jesus felt … as he hung there on the cross

It did not matter how he felt … he did what he knew he should

He knew that it would cost his life … as they nailed him to the wood

The Father’s heart was broken … as he sent his son to die

But a sacrifice was needed … and only God knew why

He doesn’t base his love on feelings … he bases it on truth

What God says, is what God does … and his actions are his proof

So I praise God in the morning … because I know it’s right

I pay my tithes and go to church … without a mental fight

I try to do what Jesus would … and live life as Jesus did

And never base my love of God … on feelings that are hid

I just cannot imagine my life without Jesus!
