All Because of Him

Jesus Christ, He is the one.
He is the Father's beloved son.
He gave His life that I may live.
Eternal life He did give.
He seeks perfection and I fail that test.
But the Lord forgives so I may rest.
He lifts me up when I am down.
He is my lifeline when I start to drown.
He promises me more than I deserve.
He asks that I have a heart to serve.
I give my life and live for Him.
He fills my cup up to the rim.
I search my heart to find God's grace.
He puts me in to run His race.
I'll share His love with all who hear.
I must steer clear of my one true fear.
I shall not care what people think.
But for God I'll be a single link.
God gave his son as the perfect gift.
Forever praises to Him we'll lift.
Why He had to feel the pain?
To prove that God will always reign.
Jesus Christ has love for me.
I lay it out there for all to see.

This is a poem I wrote last semester. I was laying in bed one night and I couldn't sleep. I had words running through my head. I kept thinking about the things God has done for me and everyone else. I was thinking about all the promises He has made and the things He has asked us to do. I thought about the things I know I should do but fail at each and every day. That night I really thought about how He calls us to live for Him every day in every way. I ended up writing this out before I fell asleep that night so that I would never forget it. I just thought I would share it with everyone who happens to come across my blog.

In Christ
