Solitary Man



The world is full of empty promises. Lust is ultimately the opposite of faith. We need each other, we are part of the puzzle, but we will learn to love each other only after we learn to surrender to the love of Jesus Christ ...

  1. Amen. So true.

    Surrender; giving up. I surrender all, all to thee I owe Precious Savior, I surrender all.

  2. Lust is a dead-end; Jesus is the open road.

  3. So true, it's only when we surrender our lives do we gain our lives in Jesus Christ. We find our lives & purpose in His plan.

    Through His Word we can learn about the obstacles that Satan tries to use to trip us up along our beautiful path, one such thing is lust. It't like Satan hiding in lamb's wool, it's NOT love from our Father, simply a cheap immitation designed to destroy. So walk with the power of His knowledge & embrace real love.

  6. Jesus: Alpha and Omega. Beginning, End, and Everything in between.

    With Him in that place, we are empowered with right and real love for others.

    I don't think I ever paid attention to the words of this song. Sad that they are true.
