John 17:4 ,
Have you read it before?
He had work to do here on earth,
He knew it since His birth.
“I have brought you glory “
Let me tell you the story,
How Jesus became man
And lived amongst evil clans.
He was without sin,
Because of this, they hated Him.
He lived His life by the Word
Those around would have seen and heard.
He came as a humble servant,
His message was truthful and urgent.
He is the long awaited King,
A message of salvation He brings.
The Kingdom of God is at hand,
Not all will see something so grand.
Repent and turn to the Lord,
You will become brand new and restored.
So as you read John 17:4
Remember Jesus knew before,
What God had in store.
He willing laid down His life for you and me,
Accept his truth in your heart and you will see.
The glory that was meant to be.
Rev. Catherine Cassell
Hannah suffered from being bullied at school,
So turned to the Royal Yachting Association;
Born with no lower right arm in 1985 cool,
She originally sailed a mirror, neat motion.
Initially she didn't like disability sailing events,
But Andy Cassell, a British Paralympic sailor,
Directed her to them, so she put her cents,
Into sonars, larger boats with a team factor.
She joined with John Robertson and Thomas,
And gave her all in the mixed sonar contests,
Where she won 2 silvers and 2 bronze bases,
And also 3 golds at the Disabled World jests.
This was between 2003 and 2015 Melborne,
Starting in Athens, going on to Sonderborg,
In Denmark, then to Perth, Australia born,
And then to Medemblik in Holland, a gorge.
Then came Weymouth which took them onto,
Melbourne, and from there Rio they made,
Where the trio created a ninth place portfolio,
Which thrilled them nonetheless with blade.
