Sing them over again to me, Wonderful words of Life;
Let me more of their beauty see, Wonder words of Life.
Words of life and beauty, Teach me faith and duty:
Beautiful words, wonderful words, Wonder words of Life.
Beautiful words, wonderful words, Wonder words of Life.
— P.P. Bliss
I was reading some posts at Gospel for Asia about how tracts are used to share the Gospel of Jesus Christ and the words to the chorus of the hymn, “Wonderful Words of Life” came to me. I haven’t sung that song in ages and had to go dig up my old Cokesbury Hymnal to find the words. I think those words speak volumes of what we as believers feel about the words of the Gospel message and for us they ARE words of Life.
We sometimes are blinded by the blur of information and technology in our lives and scoff at something as simple as a tract. But God has always taken what the world sees as foolish or useless and made it a power tool for His work. And God is using Gospel tracts to reach the hearts of people in areas that probably couldn’t be reached in other ways. Gospel tracts are expanding the reach of local pastors throughout Asia and the harvest of souls is increasing.

A Gospel Tract Leads a Witch Doctor to Jesus
Father, how can anyone know and hear unless the Words of Life are shared with them? Help us to see who these words bring life changes to many and let us with joy sing of “Beautiful Words, Wonderful Words”. Help us to see how we may help others share these Words of Life through simple things like Gospel tracts. Father, we pray for wisdom, health, and provision for those who provide the tracts, those who deliver the tracts and those who read the tracts. In the Name of Jesus, the very Word of Life, Amen.
Be well,
Steve
