 "THE CENTER OF THE BIBLE"
The Center of the Bible is a very interesting story. You will enjoy this and be surprised at what you are about to read.

What is the shortest chapter in the Bible? Answer - Psalms 117.

What is the longest chapter in the Bible? Answer - Psalms 119.

Which chapter is in the center of the Bible? Answer - Psalms 118.

Fact: There are 594 chapters before Psalms 118, and Fact: There are 594 chapters after Psalms 118. Add these numbers up and you get 1188.

What is the center verse in the Bible? Answer - Psalms 118:8.

Does this verse say something significant about God's perfect will for our lives? The next time someone says they would like to find God's perfect will for their lives, and that they want to be in the center of His will, just send them to the center of His Word which is His Will, Psalms 118:8 (NKJV), "It is better to trust in the LORD than to put confidence in man." Now isn't this strange how this worked out, or was God in the center of it all along?

Do you have a minute for prayer? 60 seconds for God? All you need to do is say a simple prayer: "Father, I want to be in the center of your will." "Jesus, I am sorry for the sins I have done in my life, I want to know you as my personal Lord and Savior. I invite you to come into my heart and I give my life to you, now."

Jesus said that no man comes to the Father, except by Me. I am the Truth, the Way, and the Life. If you would accept Him, and believe that He died for you, you will have enternal life. He will be closer to you than a brother, and He will never, never leave you or forsake you. He is truly someone worth knowing.

Romans 10:9 and 10:

9)that if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. 10)For with the heart one believes unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.

III John 2 : "Beloved, I pray that you shall prosper, and be in health, even as your soul prospers toward God". God Bless you Everyone!

CRYSTAL TEARS
CRYSTAL TEARS FALL FROM HIS EYES
WHEN HE LOOKS UPON THE EARTH.
FOR WHAT HE SEES BREAKS HIS HEART,
WE LIVE IN ABJECT DEARTH.
 
HE DIED ON THE CROSS SO ALL COULD SEE
THE GLORIES HE CREATED FOR YOU AND ME,
BUT IF WE DO NOT BELIEVE HE DIED FOR US,
THEN HE CRIES, AND CRIES FOR US.
 
THE CRYSTAL TEARS ROLL DOWN HIS CHEEKS,
THEY DROP ON HEAVEN'S FLOOR,
HE DIED AND ROSE AGAIN FOR US,
HE IS THE ONE AND ONLY DOOR
 
INTO THE PRESENCE OF THE FATHER,
THE RULER OF ALL, ON HIGH.
IT IS THE NAME OF JESUS ALONE
THAT GETS US TO HIM NIGH.
 
OH, FRIEND, PLEASE LOOK TO JESUS,
HE DIED UPON THE CROSS,
AND ROSE AGAIN THE THIRD DAY
SO WE WOULD NOT BE LOST.
 
WHEN WE BELIEVE IN JESUS
AS THE RISEN SON OF THE LIVING GOD,
OUR FUTURE IS SEALED IN HEAVEN,
AND THE GOLDEN STREETS WE SHALL TROD.
 
THE CRYSTAL TEARS FLOW DOWN HIS CHEEKS
BECAUSE OF HIS GREAT, MAGNIFICENT LOVE.
HE WANTS US ALL TO LIVE WITH HIM
IN THE HEAVEN HE CREATED ABOVE.

Jake, the rancher, went one day
to fix a distant fence.
The wind was cold and gusty
and the clouds rolled gray and dense.

As he pounded the last staples in
and gathered tools to go,
The temperature had fallen,
the wind and snow began to blow.

When he finally reached his pickup,
he felt a heavy heart.
From the sound of that ignition,
he knew it wouldn't start.

So Jake did what most of us would do
if we had been there.
He humbly bowed his balding head
and sent aloft a prayer.

As he turned the key for the last time,
he softly cursed his luck.
They found him three days later,
frozen stiff in that old truck.

Now Jake had been around in life
and done his share of roaming.
But when he saw Heaven, he was shocked
-- it looked just like Wyoming!

Of all the saints in Heaven,
his favorite was St. Peter.
(Now, this line ain't needed
but it helps with rhyme and meter)

So they set and talked a minute or two,
or maybe it was three.
Nobody was keeping' score
-- in Heaven time is free.

"I've always heard," Jake said to Pete,
" that God will answer prayer,
But one time I asked for help,
well, he just plain wasn't there."


" Does God answer prayers of some,
and ignore the prayers of others?
That don't seem exactly square
-- I know all men are brothers."

"Or does he randomly reply,
without good rhyme or reason?
Maybe, it's the time of day,
the weather or the season."

"Now I ain't trying to act smart,
it's just the way I feel.
And I was wondering', could you tell me
-- what the heck's the deal?!"

Peter listened very patiently
and when Jake was done,
There were smiles of recognition,
and he said, "So, you're the one!!"

"That day your truck, it wouldn't start,
and you sent your prayer a flying,
You gave us all a real bad time,
with hundreds of us trying."

A thousand angels rushed,
to check the status of your file,
But you know, Jake, we hadn't heard from you
in quite a long while."

"And though all prayers are answered,
and God ain't got no quota,
He didn't recognize your voice,
and started a truck in Minnesota."
