“Love of God”

Mar29

Gift…

As I read the poem  I wrote about God‘s Love… it reminds me of Easter  … God’s true love was his son, Jesus… who He knew had been born for redemption of our sins… What a burden He had to have had… to finish what He knew He had to do to get His people back in His grace… As that day approached… I know He had to be in agony… and when He heard His son asking,  “Is there any other way?”  … He must have felt as if his heart was breaking… His will had to be done… He had to sacrifice such a precious being… But, as the day of resurrection  came after such a tormenting time… How ecstatic He must have been!… I remember my Salvation… Oh, what a burden was lifted as I felt the Spirit of God come into my body… I couldn’t praise   Him enough… So if I get discouraged… if I get sad… if I get lonely… I draw on that Special Day… to keep me walking straight… to keep me smiling… to keep me having faith… I thank you Lord for that day! … That you saw me as a special child of yours … ready to return to You with Hope again!

“Love of God” 

The Love that God has given-

Comes to us so free-

It will never be taken-

It’s for you, as well as me.

“He” loves us all-

Yellow, Black or White-

Whether big or small-

“His” love is just right!-

“He” came from above-

To set us all free-

With abundance of love-

“He” will always be!

Just open your heart-

Let “Him” come in-

“He’ll” never depart-

Always a friend!

“He’ll” stay by your side-

Lifting you high-

Even when pride-

Has made you cry!

God’s love is so dear-

You’ll feel it inside-

And it will keep-

Your arms opened wide!

For those who in need-

That you see every day-

You’ll be able to plead-

For them as you pray!

For forgiveness of sin–

For those that are lost-

Their hearts can mend-

Through the “One” on the cross!

Jesus… He’s the “One”-

Who died for our sins–

“He” said, “It’s done!”-

The love of God wins!
