God's Apostle Paul

There was a man from Tarsus whose name was Saul who did all he could to make Christians to fall But one day he took a trip to Damascus was his aim but God met him on the road and his life was never the same On that conversion road his eyes became blind till God’s light shined to bring him a enlightened mind From that day forth he was known as Paul for he took God’s truth all over to one and all Much suffering he received persecution, strife and near death for the sake of the gospel he sought to speak its vital breath Much time he spent in prison but God used his time for good Paul there did write many letters for the churches spiritual food This man thus became known as Paul the godly apostle one who met the risen Christ his life was indeed colossal Paul’s legacy was his writings which we still have today to disciple, instruct and teach us so we know how to obey His life came to a tragic end in AD60 when in Rome Nero sentenced the apostle to his death in doing so Paul came eternally home What a story his life was as God made him his own releasing him from satin’s grip the purpose to make Christ known poetgord@2013
