These Are My JOTtings, Part #2

Great Faith

Forty minutes, here we go.
Sacrifice to let Him know.
Inconvenient it must be,
before the heart He now would free.

Here's the lesson we must learn,
Christ, the Lord, our hearts discerns,
"Fill it full your faith so small.
Know My Name. Upon it call."

This Jesus will not put us down
when little faith would make us frown.
We lift our doubts to Christ, who came.
The days of Hope are all the same.

Shalom is peace and hope, today.
I speak the truth of Christ, I say.
My life in grace shows more to come.
The lost are saved, the part, the sum.

Impossible is nothing more
for Jesus, who did this before.
We bring our friends to Christ alone,
who sits upon the lasting throne.

I hear about the checks You send.
I hear about the eyes You mend.
I hear about the lives made whole.
I hear about some victory's goal.

I need to see it all for me.
I need great hope, that You can free.
I know the money comes from You.
I know great faith is victory through.
