If you need
An overhaul
It won’t come
From alcohol
But it can come
From Jesus.

No brew
Can ever do
What Jesus
Will do
If you
Let Him
Ever brew
In your heart.

The reason people aren’t more excited about Jesus is that they mix lots of self-focus into their life and thus dilute His brew. Jesus can’t take control of your life until you stop insisting on doing what you want. Drinking might help you forget your guilt, but Jesus can completely erase it.

The solution to your inner emptiness isn’t alcohol, it’s Jesus. It’s not the old wine, but God’s New Wine. Alcohol overpowers people. Jesus empowers them.

Alcohol is not the answer, the risen Jesus is. You can’t really drown your sorrows, but you can replace them with the joy of the Lord.

If you won’t keep Jesus first, anything else you put first will let you down. What many people look for in drinking (comfort, companionship, stress relief, fun, inebriation) I find in the risen Jesus.

Some people think they need a drink. I know that I need the alive Jesus! Drinkers don’t want their glass to be empty. I don’t want my heart to be empty.

Instead of shots in a glass, Jesus gives me life-giving shots in my heart.
