What A Friend We have in Jesus!

     For the newsletter I share one of my poems, with different scripture references you might enjoy reading in your Bible.

     I began writing poetry with spiritual emphasis to further my ministry over the years.

     What A Friend We Have in Jesus! May many come to know Him as their personal Lord and Savior, and may we get to know Him better in a closer walk with Him as we journey onward to the glory of God.

 

(1) Jesus is Precious (I Peter 2:7)

To all who believe;

He is the Savior (John 1:12)

Of all who Receive;

He died on Calvary, (I Peter 3:18)

To save us from sin;

But now He is Living (I Cor. 15:20-22)

And gives peace within!

 

(2) Jesus is Risen

Out of the dark grave;

He is exalted

Mighty to save! (Hebrews 7:25)

He invites sinners

To turn from their sin;

Trusting Him only –

And be “Born Again”! (John 3)

 

(3) Jesus is Coming

What a Day it will be!

Coming in Power

And in His Glory!

We shall be with Him; (I John 3:1-3)

And like Him shall be!

For that’s the promise,

When Him, we shall see.

 

(4) Until that Bright Day,

For we in the Lord;

Let’s walk in His way,

As taught in His Word;

That we bring forth fruit,

To His name’s glory –

And see others saved;

From their sins, set free.

 

 

 

     May the amazing, all sufficient Grace of God abound to you through the Lord and Savior, Christ Jesus!
