Drawing Power At the Cross

Growing up throughout childhood being always keen to read there was a particular favourite it had awesome effect indeed The life of Jesus picture book this effected me more than I knew in those early years read of the cross Jesus suffered at Calvary was true Every time I read this at the cross it made me to stop and slowly think of what does this mean for me Jesus forsaken His life to sink Then three days later to rise from the dead by God's power conquered death the son of God years later to be my believing hour In my late 20s in night of sadness my wife Jean had died at early age these memories of years long ago came afresh again to turn my page The light came that Jesus died for all my sin the price Christ paid this is the power of the cross Jesus comes in and forever stayed (For those who doon't know my story, my first wife Jean died in 1982 but now married to Christine so happily for 25 years.)
