Let's take the word "love"
  and study it close;
The most famous word
  in life I suppose!

It's taken for granted
  by most all of us;
It's said as an ending
  as we bicker and fuss!

We throw it to family
  as we walk out the door;
So misused by all-
  by rich and by poor!

We feel it has meaning,
  of used every day.
No matter how spoken,
  just a word that we say!

I pray that you see it
  before it's too late;
Love is more than a word
  to throw at your mate!

It's not just a noun
  to be casually thrown,
It's FAR more than that
  when its meaning is shown!

There's one HUGE example
  how to show others love;
It's found in My God's Word,
  from Heaven above!

God sent His Son Jesus
  to die on a tree;
He bled on Mt. Calvary,
  to set us all free!

He hung on the cross
  for our sins to erase;
To save all our souls
  from the judgment we face.

God showed us the meaning
  of love on that day:
To sacrifice wholly
  ourselves all the way!

You see, He came down,
  from Heaven above;
To show us Himself-
  true meaning of love!!

You ever feel that you're not loved,
  I hope that soon you'll see;
You're more than just a shining light,
  you're Heaven's gift to me!

You're brighter than the sun and moon,
  fresh breathe of springtime air;
Not one thing that God placed on earth,
  to you I'd dare compare!

A splash of salt with ocean wave,
  soft footprint in the sand;
You left your mark on this 'ole heart,
  slight touch of God's own Hand!

You're more than just a special girl,
  you're of the rarest breed;
With you , I now have found true love,
  the only thing I need!

Good morning to you gorgeous love,
  you've been on my mind.
Your popping up in all my dreams,
   Your of the rarest kind!

You make me feel most everyday,
  a true and special love;
You show me oft that I'm the man,
  you're always dreaming of!

For since you've came into my life,
  my heart has found its place;
My days are so much brighter now
  while walking through life's race!

I never thought I'd find such love,
   now possible it seems;
Since now I've found what I've not had
  the Angel in my dreams!

In life you feel you've hit a wall,
  there's something just not right?
Look to My God, He'll stand by you
  to help you win the fight!

He made you who you are today,
  He knows your every need,
He wants to talk with you right now;
  if just His Book you'll read!

You see He knows whats best for you,
  He's got a bigger plan;
He cheers you on from Heaven's Throne
  My God's your biggest fan!

So as you feel your all alone
  get on your knees in prayer;
My God the ruler of everything
  is waiting for you there!

Stowed away in a manger,
  what a lowly birth;
When My Jesus came here,
   with us to this earth.

He came as a human,
   just like you and me.
From a child to His death,
  mortal man was He!

He walked on the water,
   made the sick men well,
Made one loaf feed a thousand
  broke the devil's spell!

Gave the blind back their sight,
  raised the dead from the grave,
Made the lame men to walk,
  made the oceans behave !

He hung on that cross
   where He bled and He died.
Forgave all our sins
   when He was crucified!

He could have called Angels,
   ten million or more;
Instead paid the price
   for our sins that He bore!

Now think once again
   what we put Him through.
I thank Him each day,
   as I hope you do too!

'Tis all my burdens lifted now
  because of My God's grace.
He's seen me through the trials of life,
  He'll see me through life's race!

'Twas grace that brought my loved ones down,
  each one all to their knees.
They prayed for me to stop my run,
  to shake the devil free!

'Twas grace that opened up my eyes,
  once blind in sin I trod;
But now I see there's more to life,
  when living it for God!

'Twas grace that washed away my sin,
  the time I first believed.
My God had paid the final cost,
  His blood my sins relieved!

'Twas grace that took away my fear,
  through hard times come and gone.
My Jesus held me close to Him,
  all through life's night till dawn!

'Twas grace that showed me how to live
  for My God every day.
I strive to spread His love around
  in everything I say!

'Twas grace that paved my way to Him,
  for one day soon I'll stand;
Home with My Jesus face to face,
  in Heaven's Beulah Land!

'Twas grace that brought this sinner home,
  now in my rightful place.
Thank God I've got another chance
  with His amazing grace!

So you pass it every day now,
  that book just lying there.
You know that you should read it;
  such riches there to share!

It's not just decoration,
  all covered up in dust.
If you'll read a couple pages,
  then in God just place your trust!

He will open up your eyes now
  if you'll only scriptures read;
He will change your life forever,
  yes, He'll fill you full indeed!

You can read 'bout any passage
  that My Heavenly Father spoke,
And find something so important
  that will give your heart a poke!

There is so much in those Scriptures
  that will help you grow always.
It's a book that every Christian
  should read near every day!

You can talk to God My Father
  as you go to Him in prayer;
Then His answers He has written
  in Those Scriptures lying there!

So when you see it on that table
  as your walking out the door,
Pick it up and read it's pages
  and He'll bless you ten times more!
