Notes About The Poem

Worth More Than Millions

Jesus gives me directions To love as He has loved With a sincere compassion That knows no conditions This love of His has no limits It goes beyond worry and strife It fills the heart with a joy… That can only be expressed in rebirth This love of His has a purpose To give generously, without constraint With a true sensitivity to the feelings… That someone else has felt This love of His has been given To bring salvation to the sinner Reaching into a wretched heart… And bringing about a complete surrender This love of His holds the answers To every question we might ask, Creates a sense of peace on the inside That could never compare to another serenity This love of His sends us promises That our greatest fears will be overcome By the assurance that no harm can arise… For those who trust in God’s only Son This love of His mends what is broken Whether it be a heart or a spiritual pain It restores the one who feels shattered… With a promise of true hope and faith This love of His succeeds where nothing else can Pleading victory from these nail scarred hands Reaching down to the poorest, lost sinner And giving a new life, a new way, a second chance. This love of His is worth more than millions No amount of money can possibly buy it Through grace, it is eternal salvation sent to us Who simply have the faith to accept Him

Hi Regina. Congrats on this poem being chosen for the Anthology. That's how I discovered it and I think it's a marvelous tribute to the compassionate love of Christ. I like poems that rhyme and I found a little bit of rhyme, but this flows so eloquently without it. It glorifies our Lord beautifully! Well done. Blessings~John

Regina, looking through some of your poems I hadn't seen because I wasn't on Poetrysoup yet, and this one is so perfectly awesome! I love the whole poem, and these words "This love of His succeeds where nothing else can Pleading victory from these nail scarred hands, Reaching down to the poorest, lost sinner, And giving a new life, a new way, a second chance" Just WOW! I love it so much <3

Regina! This poem is a real winner! You describe the love of Christ to the letter as found in Scripture. Do you belong to a church? Use your poetry as a fundraiser for it. I sold individual poems to members (I let them choose the subjects and styles) and then let them decide what they were worth. I raised $1k that way. Then I bound them into books and raised an addition $400. I bet you would raise a lot.

"But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us" Rom. 5:8 (NKJV) That IS Unconditional Love. Your thoughts Hold So Much Truth! This is so beautiful and uplifting. Congratulations Regina, on Poem of the Day. :) Brandy
