What Jesus Means To Me

What Jesus Means To Me This poem is based on sermon by Father Dave Davis, Rector of St. James Episcopal Church, Shallotte, NC on March 22, 2015. Gospel for Day was John 12:20-23. Maybe they might put my poem on their website. What Jesus Means To Me Who is this Jesus supposed to be? What should He really mean to me? Of course, He is our Lord and Savior And want to find myself in His favor. There are things that I do not deny Want Jesus to be a nice, great guy Being available and also convenient And like Him best when He is lenient. What is it that we want Jesus to do? Be nice and make dreams come true; Answer prayers each and every one; When He's around have a lot of fun. Have Jesus help me grow and grow And where it is I might have to go Be with me up until my dying day To heaven be sure to take me away. Do I have to be much more direct? What is it I am supposed to expect? From Jesus but know that I am glad His big job to do I never, ever had. James Thomas Horn Retired Veteran and Member of Board of Vestry and 2d Helpings Program
