Love Poems to My Precious Daughter, Sarah, Who is Loved by Jesus, & A Salvation Prayer!

Art by Ranu

Oh, my Little One, my Grown Daughter.  I have so many memories of you in our family!  You are very strong-willed, adventurous, very caring about others, so tender.  Just a week or so ago, we were talking on the phone long distance, and your dad was joking with you, saying something about his leg was lagging behind or had gotten hurt, and you would not let it go, and you were COMPLETELY serious in keeping on asking until you were sure that your dad was all right!  Sarah.  Still the same as a child. Both Sarah and Tyler, Sarah's younger brother and our grown son, are always ready to help us!  My husband and I are so blessed, indeed, with our offspring.  Sarah's husband Eric is like our third, albeit the oldest! child (not that his parents would ever approve of our "stealing" him, so we pretend that he is our own born!)  He is an incredible blessing to everyone he loves and befriends, even people he does not know...BIG heart and smart.

Sarah, you are very loving of others...and animals! Wow.  You kept and took care of little froggy, turtle, fish, many kitties- our family's goal in life- dogs and cats and others at the vet where you worked, assisting in surgeries, exams, walking dogs.  One day as an older teenager, you were driving us along a sort-of side street near some shopping areas, and a bird flew right out in front of our car, and the car hit this darling little life.  You were absolutely stricken!  You stopped the car, put it in park, went in front of the car where the birdie lay and from the car, you ran to the birdie, and ever so quickly took it in your hands and brought it into the car.  You were quite stricken that the car and the bird collided. We were fortunately close to the veterinarian's office where you worked.  You sped over, parked, and took the injured bird into the office to get help.  I followed after them.  The dr./helper worked to revive the birdie with Sarah nervously watching.  Our bird friend did not make it, but I told Sarah she had done everything.  It makes me weepy, even now thinking of Sarah's anguish.
Oh, my, what a strong-willed, determined, did I say headstrong? girl you were and are?  Now Sarah is resolute, tempered with the softness of a kitten.

Now that I have told you some of our family stories, there is much more about our daughter, but I need to put the poems I have for the Lord and Sarah.  I hope you enjoy them, and perhaps they will inspire you, Friends.

In His Presence

 Won’t we be softened

By being in the presence

Of our Lord?

 

Won’t we be purer

When we sit at His feet?

 

In His shining countenance,

With loving, outreached arms

For us,

In the fragrance of His Home-

And our new Home, too!

Oh, it will surely be sweeter

Than any earthly fruit could bear!

 

Our clear faces will reflect

Precious Jesus’ smile,

And when we look back at Him,

He will see the love

We were meant to have for Him

In the beginning.

  by Donna McCoy-Harms

Seeing You, Lord!

I can’t wait to

See your face,

Lord.

Your real, exact

Face.

 

Will I fall down

Before you?

Will I let You

Sweep me up

Into your arms?

 

There is not even that question-

Of course, I will allow my Lord and Savior

Jesus Christ to swirl and to twirl me around with His Love!

 

Probably both-

Probably a

Million other

Possibilities.

Whatever- it will be beyond any expectation!!

A Salvation Prayer

Dearest Friends,

Please say this prayer with me to Jesus, 

Or, you can use one that you 

Feel really comfortable with,

Perhaps A Salvation Prayer in your

Church's hymnal or Bible.

You can put these thoughts into your own

Precious ideas, thoughts, and word-

From your Heart,

To Your Blessed Savior:

Cleansing Your Heart Before Him---

Dear Jesus,

I am awe-inspired by The Holy Bible with

Your stories, goings-on 

and Love for all people.

You forgive us from ANY sins when we

Truly want a clean Heart.

Please tell Him: 

Dear Lord Jesus~!  Please lend me thine ear!

I want to be your child,

And I know that you created ME and

Everything of the Earth and Stars.

You died on the cross, shedding your blood 

for ME and my Life.

I accept You, Jesus, now and forever,

For my beloved Lord and SAVIOR!

I, Donna, want you in my Life 

guiding and directing, helping me!

THANK YOU for loving me so much you died for 

Every single human being, including myself

To be with YOU in Heaven one day,

When you say my time on Earth

Is finished, then I go to Heaven

To be with You and other Believers forever!!!

I love you beyond all expectation, Jesus.

YOU are the ONE and ONLY begotten 

Son of God.

No one else, Jesus.

Amen.

God bless each of you in your walk on Earth and in your belief and acceptance, understanding of Jesus

and the Godhead- God the Father, God in Jesus Christ, and the Holy Spirit of the Lord!

Prince of Peace by Yongsung Kim

 The Lord God helps me through the Holy Spirit to write: www.thehealingisalwayschrist.com  Its purpose and main goals are two-fold: 1) to be a helper to show people Who Jesus Christ is and what a great God we have, serve, and love!!  My hope and prayer is that each person will take Jesus as Lord and Savior, "not lest one fall (that no one should fall/fail to be saved)."  2) I encourage people who read these postings, who are already believers in the faith of Christ to be encouraged and renewed, also to bring people who have "left" the faith to return to Him again- re-commitment!  Ah, yes- to plant seeds of hope, understanding and knowledge of the Only True Creator and Savior, LORD, there is- Christ Jesus, the Messiah, the Beginning and the End, the Lover of our Souls Who wants you to join Him when it is time, one day in Heaven- to be in Heaven forever with Him, accepting God's Son Jesus  as your LORD God and Savior divine!  You want to choose Heaven, not Hell!  It is your decision, Friend. Tell God now!  Pray to God the Father, to accept Christ, take Jesus into your heart and start by being in His Kingdom, here on Earth, then continuing one day in His Heavenly Kingdom for ever and ever!  The Holy Spirit Himself comes in to dwell with you immediately and helps so very, very much to guide you, giving you truth and direction, hope, and comfort, as He teaches you!

The Twentieth Anniversary of My Lord Saving Me from Death in an Extremely Serious Car Accident

 

 

                                                               

A Wondering Thought: 

Sometimes I wonder how many times the Lord has rescued us from a catastrophe, and we have no idea.  Maybe in Heaven He will tell us!   :)

August 7, 2002, I crashed my car while driving on a country divided, two-lane highway in my state of Kansas. My husband was driving his small truck, and I was following him home. It would be a three hour drive from Royce's little sis Lori in Salina to Overland Park, our home, and we had just left Council Grove, an old Kansas town with LOTS of history and fun to hangout with family! Royce and I were very familiar with these towns and roads, especially since Royce had driven large trucks delivering large farm implements around Kansas and a few states.  The last thing on my mind that day was a car crash!

As I was driving the only things that I remember was the darkness, a drab gray and voices.  I remember my husband talking to me: Royce said that I would be ok; he or the other man said that I had been in a car accident.  The main thing on my mind was talking with Jesus and God.   I said, "Jesus, help me!'  Please help me, Royce, and the people here." That was it. 

Everything was that gray blankness except for a few sounds people carrying me on a lift, seeing nothing, only having that vague awareness.   I heard the whirringsound of a helicopter's wings .  The people at the scene either told me that we were going to the helicopter, or I supposed that by hearing the sounds.  I was lifted into the copter, and then we took off. Royce had to drive the way to the hospital I was flown to St. Joseph's Emergency unit in KCMO, Missouri.  Royce was a police officer at that time, and when the people in charge had asked him which hospital, Royce said, St. Joseph's.  He had taken victims there, and it had the best reputation for extreme accidents at that time.

I am making this posting extra short because I want to put it online tonight on the 20th anniversary of that accident and time.  I have not included a picture of a car in a culvert, as I usually put a picture at the top of the story, wrecked. My family has been through so much with me that a graphic picture is one less reminder, even though it would be a facsimile.  I must say that my family went through so very much pain in that one month's stay at the hospital, then the following 9 months and year -plus, plus- with home therapy, outpatient therapy and at least 2-3 surgeries, and through the years.  I still walk with a cane. On a vacation, the family pushes me in a wheel chair, etc.

I was raised by an incredible Christian mother (more to come on that very soon!) who raised my sister Sherry and me to be very thankful for what we have from God in Jesus Christ, with our Holy Spirit, of course! She would point out about others who have much more need than we do! We are to give: 

Luke 6:38. "Give, and it will be given to you. A good measure, pressed down, shaken together and running over, will be poured into your lap. For with the measure you use, it will be measured to you."

This posting is meant to encourage you!!!  Please, do not be downhearted or heavy in spirit!  God is with you each step of your Life.  Be sure to commit your Life to Christ Jesus, and you will to go to Heaven when you pass on.  If you think a loved one had not accepted Jesus before dying, keep heart!  We do not know what goes on in the mind of a person is passing away.  God will take every advantage to persuade us to come to HIM!!!  Be sure you take your family to a really bona fide Christian, Bible believing church, and it is never too late to affect someone for their faith to be in Jesus. Stay in the Word; read and study the Bible.Tell people The Truth!!

God bless you, Dear One.  Be encouraged and have and keep your faith in Him.  He loves each one of us MORE than we can imagine.

I do not like to write in a shoddy fashion, but I am posting this writing tonight to get it out on the 20th anniversary and will keep editing this post!  Thank you for your understanding.

 

Who Else Except Jesus Himself Can Offer You Heaven!? & A Salvation Prayer!

Jesus Ascends to Heaven

A Catholic Print, Thank you!

I am a Protestant

We all, Catholic and Protestant,

Believe in our Lord and Savior

Christ Jesus!

Part I of II

Who Else Can Offer You Eternity?

We people search and search,

Wonder and search.

We should question.

 

Whatever you

Query,

Ask the Lord Almighty!

Ask Him to help you find His Answer.

 

Then, go to a good believer in Christ,

One who is knowledgeable.

One who is Bible-believing and

 Jesus Christ,

The Son of  the Living God-

Believing…

 

Talk with this most special person

Who chose well!.....

Wait.

(Or, make a decision to accept Christ the Lord and Savior, now!?) 

God will answer your true heart’s calling.

He will, most assuredly.

 

When you know,

Then ask Christ into your heart.

Ask God for the forgiveness of your sins.

 

God, the Father, the Son, and

The Holy Spirit

WILL forgive you,

Putting your sins as far as the east is from the west,

Deep into the more far regions

Of the Seas-

And forget them all, the sin.

 

    

Part II

Who Else Except Jesus Himself Can Offer You Heaven!?

Jesus, the Messiah,

Died as the Father asked Him to do.

Taking on ALL of the sins that

All of us ever had, would, or would be committing.

 

Jesus, the Atoning Perfect Sacrifice

Was the Only One,

For He is completely Holy,

Fully Man and Fully God.

Jesus died on the cross, then three days 

Later, arose. 

He was seen by over 500 people

During a period of 40 days.

From Bethany on the Mount of Olives,

Mount Olivet.

Then, Lord Jesus arose to Heaven

To sit at the right Hand of God our Father,

Where Jesus intercedes for us!

For always into eternity!

He will return in the clouds,

To sweep up to Heaven His chosen.

Then, when He returns to Earth and sets feet here, 

There will be a short Armageddon***(See Below) because

More battling, all would be dead,

It will be so terribly unbearable...

~~~~~~~~~Until all mankind would have passed away,

and before that, those who have chosen

 Jesus as their Lord and Savior,

These people will be in Heaven with Jesus!

Or have refused Him, thus, these have chosen to reside in Hell forever. 

Those of us who have or will 

Accept Jesus as our Lord and Savior,

Will abide beyond beautifully 

 To tulfill our loves and hopes!

By Donna M.

Dedicated

This posting is dedicated to my sister

Sherry McCoy and her husband

Robert Swartz.

Godspeed and to all who read this.  

The Lord wishes with all of His heart

That each one! of us will accept 

His Lordship and Salvation and 

WANTS

All of US to decide for Heaven,

not Hell...

He respects you enough to let you choose for yourself.

Forevermore. Amen.

Choose for Your Eternity,

Donna McCoy-Harms

 

Important Note:

***It is really not complicated, but people who are without Christ, but are alive during Armageddon, can accept Jesus as their Lord and Saviour during that time.  They will be saved with Christ, too.  However, who wants to wait until Armageddon is here- or worse, what if one passes away before Armageddon or any other time without redemption?!!  Unthinkable, but it happens and will more for those who are unbelieving/wait too long until their own death to make a decision FOR the LORD.

Accept Him Now, Please, Friends.

Here is a prayer that you can pray to accept Jesus now!

~~~A Salvation Prayer~~~ 
I ask You, God, right now to come into my heart and life.  Father, I believe in Your Son Jesus Christ, that He died on the cross shedding His perfect blood to redeem me; I ACCEPT Jesus' Gift!!  I repent from the ways of the past and want to live as You would have me, loving You, then others as myself and helping people, also that they will learn of Who You are- and who they are- in You, Lord!!  I will follow You, Jesus, all the days of my Life into eternity!!  Thank You, Holy Spirit, for coming to indwell me to guide, comfort, and obey what God wants for me.  I want to find a good church that believes in You, Christ, and studies the Word of God, The Holy Bible.  Thank YOU for talking away my sins; You even forget them.  In Jesus Precious Name, the One above All, Amen.
