Apostles
(written by, Candice Landis 03/24/2013)
Peter, Andrew. James, Jhon.Phillip, Bartholomew
Thomas, James, Thadaeus, Simon, Judas, And Matthew
Twelve Ordinary Men Chosen To Be Jesus' Apostles
To Learn From Him And Help Him Preach The Gospels
The Gospels Tell Us Of The Struggles And Doubts Of These 12 Men
As They Followed Christ Preaching The Good News Again And Again
Learning To Walk in Faith, Following His Direction
Witnessing His Resurection And Ascention Into Heaven
None Of These Men Had An Easy Time
Often They Were Sent Fleeing For Their Lives
Most Died Violent Deaths For Their Firm Beliefs
People Are Still Being Punished Today For Their Faith In Other Countries
As Children Of God We Too Are Jesus's Apostles
We Too Have A Responsibility To Teach The Gopel
When's The Last Time You Talked Openly About Your Faith In Christ
Shared With People That We Are The Reason He Gave His Life
We Live In A Much Easier Time Today Thankfully
Here In The USA Our Beliefs Aren't Met With Such Brutality
We Can Speak Of Jesus And His Love Without Fear
The Worst That We May Face Here Is A Disbelieving Sneer
Someday Jesus Will Call Them And They Will Remember You
As Someone Who Believes And Can Show Them What To Do
So Always Be Kind And Forgiving, Displaying His Light
For A Lost Soul Who Has Found The Lord Is The Most Beautiful Sight
