STILL CALLING FOR US

"And Jesus stood still, and commanded him to be called. And they call the blind man, saying unto him, Be of good comfort, rise; he calleth thee."

Mark 10:49
King James Version

Will L. Thompson wrote a beautiful hymn about our Saviour "SOFTLY AND TENDERLY JESUS IS CALLING". Yes, Jesus is still calling us.

"Softly and tenderly Jesus is calling, Calling for you and for me; See, on the portals He’s waiting and watching, Watching for you and for me.

Come home, come home, You who are weary, come home; Earnestly, tenderly, Jesus is calling, Calling, O sinner, come home!

Why should we tarry when Jesus is pleading, Pleading for you and for me? Why should we linger and heed not His mercies, Mercies for you and for me?

Time is now fleeting, the moments are passing, Passing from you and from me; Shadows are gathering, deathbeds are coming, Coming for you and for me.

O for the wonderful love He has promised, Promised for you and for me! Though we have sinned, He has mercy and pardon, Pardon for you and for me.

Come home, come home, You who are weary, come home; Earnestly, tenderly, Jesus is calling, Calling, O sinner, come home!"

Jesus tells us in the Bible to come home to Him. For some of you, He has been waiting for many years. He did not have a place of comfort when He was here. Please open the door of your heart and let Him come in and give Him a place of rest.

We read in the Bible "Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me."

Jesus loves you and He proved how much He loves you when He died on the cross for our sins. Please open the door of your heart and let Him come in and give Him a place of rest. Please don't keep rejecting Him and breaking His heart.
