Divine Juxtapositions in My Life
Awed joyously while gripped with reverential fear
Blessed to possess eternal life midst this mortal being
Carnal yet granted with divine nature
Damned by sin, but now delivered through the Saviour...
That's my status since I came* to my compassionate Redeemer!
Everlasting freedom against bondage from worldliness
Flight yon firmament, bidding farewell to grave's forlorn
Grace enjoyed as guilt smitten with forgiveness
Hoisted toward heaven, escaping wrath of hell...
That's my victorious future assured by my compassionate God!
Illumined, inspired by Scriptures to be compassionate
Jubilant faith beholds hopelessness turning vibrantly radiant
Kingdom of the Lord draws nigh to the heart midst ministry pursuits
Love in its verity conquers selfishness-subtlety through pardons' purity
That's my commitment in serving my compassionate Lord!
Miracles not myth, as well as mercy of the Almighty magnify trust-momentum
Nourishing spirituality famished by skepticism, doubt and unbelief
Only in the Omnipotent Creator can my nothingness find great value
Precious am I in His sight who is a worthless worm, sans His priceless blood
Quitting not to become compassionate in sharing His love...
That's my perspective of who am I today since Christ came to my heart!
Isaiah 55:1 “Ho, every one that thirsteth, come ye to the waters, and he that hath no money; come ye, buy, and eat; yea, come, buy wine and milk without money and without price.”
