I'Ll Tell You What I Know

You want to know about the creator  
 the one and only God?
Perhaps you should read the bible
I'm sure you'll learn a lot.
It is there you will learn the meaning,
 and the reason of our Saviors birth.
It is there you will learn the meaning,
 that you were put here upon this earth.

We all are guilty of sins,
 for which we must atone.
Asking the Lord for his forgiveness,
 makes you feel your not left here all alone.
You can talk to him as often as you want,
 even in silent prayer.
It shows him that you believe in him,
 so he will be always there.

All you need to do is have faith,
 ask for His forgiveness and to believe.
Then the burden of sins trapped within you heart,
 will forever be set free.
At times you may remember them,
 the sins you have sinned before.
They are placed there as a memory,
 so you will commit those sins no more.

Why did God create you?
A lonely sinner who feels no worth?
Everyone he created is here for a reason,
 and their sins may be forgiven with Jesus's birth.
We are all here to fulfill a purpose,
 for a special time in history.
At the end of this life on the pathway to heaven,
 it is there that you will see.

What a marvelous read from a blessed paged built on lines constructed with the lyrics of the skies and words well supported by dynamic foamy clouds. Message well expressed! No doubt an absolute 7##.
