Notes About The Poem

Tell Me, Who Do You Say That I Am

You’re my everything, my LORD AND my GOD. Meanwhile, I claim no new answer since I have learned, and am knowing WHO YOU ARE intimately by my personal relationship with YOU through Scriptures’ assertions. Indeed, YOU are the:
Alpha and Omega upholding me throughout eternity Bread of life, blessing me with gracious bounty… Christ Who’s the chief cornerstone of the church I belong Deliverer and defender, enabling me to be strong… Emmanuel Whose presence beautifies my essence Faith-Author letting my trust-story glow with sublime iridescence… Guardian, protecting my soul around regeneration seal Holy One, imparting to me divine nature I can’t conceal… Instructor, constantly exhorting me to obey commandments Judge, always forgiving toward righteous engagements… King Who deserves my service to the utmost Lover so faithful beyond my fidelity’s cost… Mediator I cling to for His spiritual advocate-role Nourisher of my being, nurtured for heavenly goal… Omnipotent, omniscient, omnipresent Sovereign Peace Source enriching me with reconciliation serenity-gain… Quickening me toward born-again genuine revival Redeemer ensuring my resurrection-upheaval… Saviour Whose Shepherd-satisfaction suffices me verily Teacher guiding my steps along His truth certainly… Ultimate reason of my meaningful existence-zest Victory causing every triumphant best, so blest… Wonderful Counselor I seek against angst and doubt Xenial in dealing with me around fellowship route Yokefellow Who bears my load in discipleship-partnership… Zealous leader I yield myself to in jubilant worship.
Indeed, You’re my everything, my LORD AND my GOD. Without You, I am nothing. Thank You very much for loving me. I love You, too. By Your grace, I live for You* while ministering to others in Your name.
Galatians 2:20 I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me.

So many richly penned phrases dear poet. It was a pleasure to read. With every phrase I nodded Yes, that is my God. Thank you for joining my contest, and congrats on your win.
