Christian Music With A Message...

Did I Say That?

Did I say that? How is it that we feel that we should be rewarded or given some type of trophy for doing the right thing or what we should have done? Does it take courage to be honest or to do what is expected? Have we drifted so far that we do not see what is important, what should be expected? Integrity, what is it? Is it something we can live without? I do not ask these questions from anyone without first asking them from myself. I know how difficult the pressures of life can be, how painful life [Read More…]

Isn’t that Why You Died?

God’s Gentle Whisper: written & sang by GLH

Living your Faith: GLH

Christianity is not a religion of exclusion and deceit but a relationship with God that promotes acceptance and love. If you study the Holy Bible in an attempt of finding the truth and not in attempting to distort or denying its accuracy, you will find that God’s love has been given unto every one, there are no exceptions or exclusions. No matter how hard you try, you will never prove one word of God’s Word to be untrue or out of place. God is not here to condemn man but to liberate him and to set him free (John 3:17-18).

God loves us so much. GLH

The number one dream or endeavor of a truly wise man is to do all he must to obtain the many promises of a righteous and all-powerful God; to obtain God’s magnificent blessings, not only for himself but for the community and the world that he lives in. This is not something that we sit and ponder; it should actively consume our total being. Holy God is truly beyond limits, and as we realize His true magnificence and unlimited potential, we begin to accept and revere the total splendor of His absolute glory and might.  How could such an awesome [Read More…]

LORD of ALL… GLH

God did not have to die in order to become important to man, God is the essence of all that humanity can ever hope and dream. The vicarious death of a righteous God is there to insure and maintain our eternal salvation. All truth and wisdom lie in the creative power of an Almighty God. God’s power is absolute and His kingdom is as formidable and secure as He has proclaimed it to be. Do we question God? If God does not know the answer, who does? The important reality of any question or circumstance is what happens when we [Read More…]

God controls it all. GLH

While in my solitude, I write, and in my spirit, I sing praise unto His precious name. My heart wants to serve Him; but, in my simple and unsophisticated ways, I am left feeling inadequate and unworthy. I know the kind of man I am, simple and undeserving, but I know that God can accomplish the impossible if I am willing to put my faith and trust in Him. So much of my writing is as though God has given me a bucket full of letters and words and I have been asked to arrange them as I feel He [Read More…]

Chapter Thirty-nine: Epilogue: Comments from the Author.

At some point in my writing, I considered it would be good policy to construct an outline to express my intentions and to guide me in my writing. Being a rebel, I often take a road seldom traveled; but, by doing so, my intent is to view things from a different perspective, not to be considered defiant. I do not wish to discard the accepted rules or methods of writing, but most of what I have written is by inspiration. I am not an author, nor do I possess the skills or attitude of a writer. All I have written [Read More…]

Chapter Thirty-eight: How to Receive Jesus Christ.

You can receive Jesus Christ right now by faith through prayer. Prayer is an expression of faith. God is not so much concerned with the words as He is with the attitude of your heart. You can know real peace in your heart and a certainty of heaven when you die. The Bible says, “Behold I stand at the door and knock; if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him” (Revelation 3:20).   Would you respond and pray this prayer? “Lord Jesus, I know that I am a sinner and need to [Read More…]

Chapter Thirty-seven: How to Have Everlasting Peace.

      Recognize that God loves you and has a unique plan for your life. The Bible says, “For God so loved the world the he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life” (John 3:16).   Realize that because of our sins, we have been separated from God and come short. The Bible says, “For all have sinned and come short of the glory of God” (Romans 3:23).   Believe that Christ died in the cross to pay the price for our sins and to purchase a place in [Read More…]
