Poem
Viewing the crucifixion scene capturing my soul I'm glued to the vital character bearing the painting's essence Staring at His image, my mind is gripped with Scripture verses Unraveling momentous event in history - spiritual and miraculous Asserting biblical Christianity's glorious message Lauding compassion's omnipotence wrought by the Almighty Father. Overwhelmed with gratefulness, I'm moved to worship... Facing the beauty of the Lamb of God, I exclaim: Crucified slaughtered Saviour, Jesus Christ the Lord Redeemer and Deliverer, He vanquished death’s sting. Unwavering in His sacrifice, offering Himself willingly Calvary’s Hill He surmounted toward eternal victory’s height. Infinite pardon He declared along “Father, forgive them” plea Freeing hell-bound sinners from iniquities’ wages. Immutable truth obscurity cannot hide Expressing “I am the way, the truth, and the Life” Dearly He paid the price to ransom me from condemnation’s verdict. Seeing my Saviour in His suffering state, yet triumphant stature Awakens my spiritual fervor, anchored by His love... Vouching me verily, renewing my vow to live for Him. Imparted with His divine nature, I’m illumined... Overtaken by service-opportunities from selfishness’ grip Upheld to exercise my faith midst strengthened heart Revived to testify “I am crucified with Christ, nevertheless I live…” Today, I put my faith in You, dear Jesus Christ. You died, were buried and resurrected to give me everlasting salvation. I trust and believe that only YOU can give me eternal life. Forgive me for my sins. Thanks so much for your love, and for assuring me heaven. *Matthew 27:33-50; Mark 15:33-39; Luke 23:33-47; John 19:17-37. **Galatians 2:20 “I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me.” Ekphrasis in Acrostic form February 15, 2019 7th place, "Final Call Of NAs Your Most Meaningful One" Poetry Writing Contest; Sponsored by Chantelle Ann Cooke; judged on 10/8/2020.
