The Commission

Every cent has been paid, every debt removed. Only sin is bankrupted! We have been redeemed and we say so! Christ followers are not purveyors of selling the Gospel. We are voices raised in the wilderness of this world. Go and tell or Stay and build. But in all give God the glory. We have been redeemed, the price has been paid.
Feed those who are hungry, share the water of life to those who hunger and thirst for His righteousness.
He loved us when no one else would. Do the same. Be about your Father's business.
The gift of one called and submitted made an eternal difference. Be a gift, not a commodity.
In Him, with Him. All things are possible.
We are all on a journey toward eternity. We all travel differently but the destination of Heaven can only be reached through Jesus Christ, the Way, the Truth, and the Life. He is the door.

~Debbie

Psalm 107:2 Let the redeemed of the LORD say so, whom he hath redeemed from the hand of the enemy;

John 10:8-10 All that ever came before me are thieves and robbers: but the sheep did not hear them.
I am the door: by me if any man enter in, he shall be saved, and shall go in and out, and find pasture.
The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.

John 14:5-6 Thomas saith unto him, Lord, we know not whither thou goest: and how can we know the way?
Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.

Mark 16:15-16  And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.
He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned.

Poem "Ye Must Be Born Again"

© 2012 Debbie Turner Chavers
Water-Man Series
John 3


Recently, I read a talented persons poetry of angst and despair, of gloom and doom. Sad enough to raise your hair. The poem below is for all..but you dear one in particular. The Lord sees every tear, every hair of your head is numbered. Your were created in the dark places yet birthed into light.
Your destiny has been sealed and set before you. Open the door, He stands waiting and knocking.

For He Loves You Completely with His Whole Heart
~Debbie



Ye Must Be Born Again

Oh! I love a happy ending from death to life
But you have recorded a witness of life unto death.

It is not that it should not be told, your witness of old
Nor that you should not be bold, as your heart and thoughts unfold.

The story written as you fling the arrows of your heart
In sorrow of your perceived demise of love that is true

But there is a lover who loves you true and victoriously waits for you
Drop your battered guard and open the door and give Him your all

For out of your darkest dark
He calls you into His perfect light.

As I read your heart cry...I reply
The words of Jesus Christ, a mighty Warrior and the Savior

(Luke 8:52 And all wept, and bewailed her: but he said, Weep not; she is not dead, but sleepeth.)


She was the kind of found that had a soul craving
For a new beginning that only He could create.

The kind that had driven herself useless in the art of life
Yet wanted to be framed as He had painted her.

Soft and yielding, colors unexplored,
Redeemed, restored yet better than before.

A canvas painted and signed,
Chosen for eternity.

And so she dropped her "No trespassing" sign
And invited Him in.

To become beautifully beautiful,
without and within
She chose,
Born Again
