No Vacancy
No Vacancy There used to be no vacancy When zeal for God yet burned But entered in complacency Few hearts for God now yearn We fill our inner passages With much of worldly fare Along with evil’s images Grown harder now to care Before the smoldering wick shall fail God’s Spirit blows again To fan a flame that shall prevail And vanquish growing sin Pain shall be the instrument The Lord shall use to cut This last resort of implements For His people in their rut Many hearts His l
Words from Your Mouth...They are Weighty!
Sticks and stones may break your bones but words can build or destroy.

The atmosphere of the room had changed from laughter and talk about the toys to describing the Jamaal’s condition. “All right everyone, he’s clean now, go back to your toys,” I encouraged. In thin
