“Don’t Turn Your Back on Jesus” by UK Christian rock band, Lyrix.
John 6:66-69 (KJV)
66 From that time many of his disciples went back, and walked no more with him. 67 Then said Jesus unto the twelve, Will ye also go away? 68 Then Simon Peter answered him, Lord, to whom shall we go? thou hast the words of eternal life. 69 And we believe and are sure that thou art that Christ, the Son of the living God.
When We Turn Our Backs on Jesus
English: Jesus, followed by Simon Peter and Andrew (Photo credit: Wikipedia)
Lord, there are too many times when I “walk no more with” you. When thinking thoughts of fear, anger, self-indulgence, and self-pity, I cease to walk with you. When I try to solve problems with my own resources and my own strength, I walk no more with you. When I am discouraged and disheartened and do not look to you for help, neither expect it in my heart, I walk no more with you. When I speak unkind words to another, or fail to give help when I have it “by my side.” Whenever I tell a lie, or cheat or steal. Whenever I want what is not mine. Whenever I am not kind. Whenever I sow discord or shrink back from reason, and decide to live by my own wits for a season. In all these things, I, we walk no more with you. Whenever we prefer darkness to GOD’s light, and in the name of convenience cease to do that which is right, we walk away from the Lord. Help us LORD to ALWAYS choose the good that resides in Your love, and to abide in and seek the kingdom of GOD.
Until we meet again: “Be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might.” (Ephesians 6:10)
