The church sat as a beacon in the city, A “lighthouse” pointing the way, shining Light out to the hungry, a healing place for the shipwrecked astray.
Jesus whispers no need to come perfect, Place your trust in Me– Friend, I’m here waiting, what do you need set free?
Chiming Bells a’ ringing, A depth of love – plain as day, gently His Spirit is drawing, Drawing you to His way.
Calloused hands uplifting, delicate hands alike, every pew will be filled, praising melodies ringing in delight.
Will you but bravely come, Surrender all your chains? Find an altar of prayer, be buried in His Name?
Bring your scars and your brokenness, Feel the Comforter ever near, Taste and see that He’s good, Let Him calm all your fears.
Can you hear the bells a’ ringing, So sweet and so true? The Bridegroom is coming soon, Can you hear Him calling out to you?


Maranantha Lod Jesus

A heavy cross to bear. On bigskybuckeye’s blog I read something that is making think…about “our offering is our sin”. That’s what God wants from us—to give Him our sin. Not our “holiness” or “perfection”. I’m still thinking about this…💓😊

I tried to find the post you were talking about, but couldn’t find it. 🤔 I know we can bring a sacrifice of praise to Him as well. 🤗💜

Yes! I went over and commented on his post. Thanks for sharing the link. We are finally well. We were able to get out and walk yesterday evening to continue to get our strength back. I went back to church tonight, first time in a little over a month. It felt wonderful to be back in the swing of things. 🙂🤗💜 Thanks for asking, hope you are doing ok.

Amen! When I hear church bells ringing, I feel the love of Christ calling us to come to Him in worship and praise. Sadly, some modern churches are no longer built with bells.

These are the bells from our older Methodist church on our main street in town. You have to be near the area around 12 to hear the bells ringing. I don’t get to hear them much for that reason, but was so excited to finally get a video that day!

That just spoke to me Warren. Thank you so much! When asked before which Disney princess I identified with, Belle always came to mind. She was the bookworm like me.🤭
