Traveling on My Knees

Last night I took a journey
To a land across the seas;
I didn’t go by ship or plane:
I traveled on my knees.
I saw so many people there
In bondage to their sin;
And Jesus old me I should go,
That there were souls to win.
But I said, “Jesus, I can’t go
To lands across the seas.”
He answered quickly, “Yes, you can--
By traveling on your knees.”
He said, “You pray, I’ll meet the need.
You call, and I will hear.
It’s up to you to be concerned
For lost souls far and near.”
And so I did; I knelt in prayer,
Gave up some hours of ease;
And with the Savior by my side
I traveled on my knees.
As I prayed on, I saw souls saved
And twisted persons healed:
I saw God’s workers’ strength renewed
While laboring on the field.
I said, “Yes, Lord, I’ll take the job.
Your heart I want to please;
I’ll heed your call and swiftly go
By traveling on my knees.”

You have to write a poem about missionaries?... First of all, I am sorry.

How about writing something controversies. Like how most missionaries go into other countries with zero education about that countries culture and spin them around and cause more harm than good? What about stating how the Christian fundamentalist know noting about anthropology and understanding and acceptance of others and their beliefs.

By Whitley Cadenhead

I had a dream.
I saw Jesus standing at the gates of heaven
Beckoning me in.
I came and sat down by his side.
He looked at me and then started to cry.

He said: "Child, daughter of mine, welcome.
Welcome to the kingdom of God.
Welcome to heaven.
Welcome to the kingdom of God
That is far beyond pain and suffering."
He touched my face and said,
"Daughter, you died for me,
And I am pleased."
I said: "Jesus, I don’t understand.
What do you mean? This is just a dream."
He said, "Look beyond the heavens;
Look beyond the sky,
Look down to earth …"
And again he cried.

He looked at me and said,
"Daughter, when you awake
They will take your life away,
And then you will come up here with me forever to stay.
You must awake now,
But remember I am always with you.
I will be right there
And I will not let you go through anything that you cannot bear."

And then I was back in my room.
I heard footsteps.
My door swung open.
The came in, pulled me out of bed,
And threw me against the wall.
Then I saw Jesus standing there, straight and tall.
He said, "I am with you."
I reached my hand out to him--
And they smashed it, breaking my bones.
Blood dripped down,
And they threw me around
In the room.
They asked me if I was a Christian.
I said, "Yes."
They said, "Deny God and we will let you go."
I said, "No.
I will go with him wherever he goes,
Even if you have to kill me to do so."

All of the sudden, I felt a million pains that I can ‘t explain.

And then I saw Jesus standing at the gates of heaven,
Beckoning me in.
I reached my hand out to him.
He took it in his,
And we walked awhile.
Then he looked at me and said:
"This is no longer a dream
But the real thing.
You are here with me forever to stay."

"When everything is ready, I will come and get you, so that you will always be with me where I am" (John 14:3).

Lead kindly light
Keep Thou my feet
I don't ask to see the distant scenes
One step enought for me.
