ART & POETRY BY PAUL & KATHY BOECHER ©
What is the price of liberty? Where lies the victor’s prize?
Is it in bodies laying still, beneath the cold, dark skies?
The cost to win our freedom cannot be seen in life,
But in the brave hearts smitten to take away our strife.
Our Savior did this willingly when tortured on the tree.
He gave His life and rose again so we could be set free.
No human life could do this. It had to be from God.
So we could see His love for us both here and far abroad.
His word He gave to teach us all the things we need to know,
His life He gave to save us from the pain that lies below.
So lift your voice to Jesus. His love will never die.
He purchased us for paradise. He’ll care for us on high.
About atimetoshare.me
As I reach the end of my years, I find I have a lot of good information stored up in this old decrepit mind of mine. If I don't write it all down, it may vanish and no one will have the advantage of my thoughts. This is why this blog exists. I love the Lord, Jesus with all my heart and soul. I know I'm undeserving of all He's done for me, but I also know that His love is beyond my comprehension.
I've always wanted to write. I never kept diaries, but tucked my thoughts in my head for future reference. I use them now in creating stories, plays, poetry and my blog.
I continue to learn every day. I believe the compilation of our time spent with God will have huge affect on the way we live. I know I'm a sinner and I need a Savior. I have One through Jesus, Christ.
My book, "Stages - a memoir," is about the seven stages of life from the perspective of a woman. It addresses all the things girls and women go through in life as they travel it with Jesus, and it is available on Amazon.com.
I read the words and they are precious, no doubt. However, I wonder sometimes if I can truly comprehend their complete meaning. I have to faithfully and spiritually make effort to comprehend. As the old folks used to say, “by and by we’ll understand”, which means in the end.

We have a new pharmacist, one of the team, and she is from Ukraine. He brother was killed in the war a few months ago. It had weighed on my heart ever since. When you hear of it happening a long way off, you might forget that there is a cost of freedom. Thanks.

We must never forget the cost. I’m saddened by those who take their freedom for granted❤️

More than saddened, for they would quickly vote to give that freedom away for a promise that is never fulfilled.
