I Need You, Father

dramatic verse Father, no other one can manage the crossing of my Jordan like You do. I need my Navigator, Jesus! Father, what a novel notion - your grace, the norm for justice. not just your love but mercy too. I need evil’s Nemesis, Jesus! Father, ordained at your hand, Christ offered us life by dying on Calvary. There is no one like your Son - always available to help I need your Offering to us, Jesus! Father, omnipotent over all things one Lord, our example, occupied with obedience, Overlord of the universe, I need your spirit to help I need to be like Jesus! written 9/3/2014 Regina Riddle, Prayer (free verse)
