I Was Born To Serve Him

I Was Born... To Serve HIM! I was born... So that others may live... Sharing with people of God's power to forgive! I was born... To help others to see... A Christ who came. To set men free! I was born... To be God's holy vessel… To be used by him... Being his "utensil." I was born... To point others in a Godly direction… Sharing with others Christ' power and resurrection! I was born... To one day write this poem. And to be a Godly leader of my family and home. I was born... To one day meet Jesus in the sky. It could be this very hour. Or after I shall die... I was born... so that people like you would know. Of a savior's salvation. How he loves you so! You were born... To give God thanks and praise! Why not serve him... The rest of your days???
