18 Inches
Most people who miss Heaven miss it by 18 inches - the distance from the head to the heart.
Are you one of those people who have
never given the Lord room in you to start?

I do believe that 18 inches can be a
trillion miles if one doesn't know the Lord.
I can see how easy it can be to never think
of Jesus, even when we're bored.

Oh! What to do?  I need to take the first step
and ask the Lord to come to me for salvation!
So, Lord, I say to You; "Come into my heart
and forgive my sinful situation."

There now, I've done it!  Lord, I've accepted You as my Savior and my friend!
Now I know that extra spark in my heart is You
and I can be with You always. Amen.
