7-10-14 No Looking Back

If you desire to follow Jesus now

You must be ready now to lose your life,

For laying hands upon the heavy plow

Demands you give your all through whip or knife.

There can be nothing you have left behind

That makes you want to stop and turn around.

The way of Christ requires all your mind,

Your body and your love for Him profound.

If you look back upon your former days

And long for something you once loved to do,

You’ll surely stumble, fall and lose your way,

So leave the past behind and follow through.

When you make Jesus Christ your Lord and Saviour

You leave upon the cross your old behaviour.

“No man, having put his hand to the plough,

and looking back,

is fit for the kingdom of God.”

Luke 9:62  KJV
