The Goal is Jesus

I wanted to share something that was laid on my heart last night.

I'm not sure if anyone in our town knows just exactly how many church buildings actually exist in Atmore. It's about 61 give or take. I have friends that travel all over the United States and said that they have never seen so many church buildings on one street than they have here.

Some may think if you don't follow "their" rules or go to "their" church or read from "their" denominations Bible, that you aren't going to heaven. Are they judging you by your church association or by what's in your heart? When they look at me into the window of my life, do they not see Jesus living in my heart waving back at them?

It's your heart and your fruits. It's not if you belong to a denomination or follow man made rules. Strip that all away, what is left? Is the same goal not Jesus and sharing His love?

With that said, we are all brothers and sisters in Christ.

God put something on my heart to write last night and I felt it needed to be shared.

“And John answered and said, Master, we saw one casting out devils in thy name; and we forbad him, because he followeth not with us. And Jesus said unto him, Forbid him not: for he that is not against us is for us.”

Luke 9:49-50

*The Goal is Jesus*

We're all working, for the same goal,

We all want to get to the same place.

We're all sinners and fall from grace,

Saved by a Son for every sin that could ever be made...-

It shouldn't matter about the clothes we wear,

If the same light shines and it's Jesus's love we share.

We all seek the very same face,

And by the same Son we all are saved.

Oh woah woah woah, oh oh oh,

Oh woah woah woah, oh oh oh.

Oh woah woah woah, oh oh oh,

Oh woah woah woah, oh oh oh.

If we all have Jesus in our hearts,

And we all live under the same bright stars.

Shouldn't we all work together to share God's love,

Teaching about The One above.

Brothers and sisters in the same Spirit...-

If we are children of the same kingdom,

And our Heavenly Father can hear us.

We shouldn't define as a denomination,

When the very same goal is Jesus....

Oh woah woah woah, oh oh oh,

Oh woah woah woah, oh oh oh.

Oh woah woah woah, oh oh oh,

Oh woah woah woah, oh oh oh.

If when we all say our prayers at night,

In the name of the one that laid down His life.

If God's words are the very same that we read,

Then shouldn't we believe the same thing.

Oh woah woah woah, oh oh oh,

Oh woah woah woah, oh oh oh.

Oh woah woah woah, oh oh oh,

Oh woah woah woah, oh oh oh.
