Jesus, Author of My Faith

"Carry your cross and come, follow Me"
Were the very words of our LORD.
He alone gives me true victory
And His Presence is my Reward.

His words are life,  my daily bread
That nourished this finite soul,
I set my mind on what Jesus said
For His Spirit makes me whole.

He's my Shepherd,  I hear His voice,
His Spirit guides all my ways,
Leads me on, so I've made the choice
To fix my eyes on Him always.

Jesus, only Author of my faith,
The One Who will truly finish
What God began in His power so great,
Jesus will complete,  I will not perish!

So follow Him,  all  believers-
He is Faithful and True, so Worthy!
He promised to leave us never
He lives in us eternally!

I have read a lot of writings here and other places and you have the true talent to put the true words of faith in order I love how you put the verse at the end you are a great writer of faith poems and others God has blessed you with the words to shear His works for all the world to see and hear God's blessings to you and keep up the wonderful words
