It's of small or no concern to others but you might notice I finally added a signature line at the bottom of my posts . I have been tormented by the amount of Christians that worshiped the Lord for most of their lives and now have seemingly just forgotten him . How does this happen ?
Satan is very busy these days , our Lord is still constant , he never changes . I have pondered this to no end result .Our Lord loves us so much he came to teach us in person , to live by example , to suffer and die nailed to a cross to buy our salvation .
I walked down the aisle in a small neighborhood Southern Baptist church in 1958 and committed myself to the Lord . I have strayed and wandered like most but always knew he would take me back . I never doubted his existence . I have sinned , followed my own way many times and knew he still loves me . How could I ever think to leave him ? I don't understand those that do . I don't understand .
I have known many hymns in my life but for a good while this old hymn's simple repetitious words come to me often . Why would I forsake my Lord for anything in this fallen world ? Why would I betray him ? Why would I reject his gift of eternal life ? Why ?
The old hymn covers a lot of ground with it's simple words , commitment and convection message .

Truly no turning back, No turning back .
