Oh How He Loves Us

Part 1.

John 15:16
"You did not choose me, I chose you and appointed you so that you might go and bear fruit-fruit that will last-and so that whatever you ask in My name the Father will give to you."

As Long As...

As long as the wind blows,
You will have joy and hope.
As long as the birds in the trees chirp,
You will never thirst.
As long as the bees buz from flower to flower,
You will know that you have a loving Savior that watches over you ever hour.
And when the world give way,
And Jesus descends from heaven,
You will still have a Savior who loves you now and even then.


I wrote this poem in anxiousness. I needed a reminder that Jesus still loves me and that He is watching over me. Jesus loves us all the time; even when we fail Him day after day.

Isaiah 53:1-7
"Who has believed our message and to whom has the arm of the LORD been revealed?
He grew up before Him like tender shoot, and like a root out of dry ground. He had no beauty or majesty to attract us to Him, nothing in His appearance that we should desire Him. He was despised and rejected by mankind, a man of suffering , and familiar with pain. Like one from whom people hide their faces He was despised, and we held Him low in esteem. Surely He took up our pain and bore our suffering, yet we considered Him punished by God, stricken by Him, and afflicted. But He was pierced for our transgressions, He was crushed for our iniquities; the punishment that brought us peace was on Him, and by His wounds we are healed. We all are like sheep that have gone astray, each of us has turned to our own way; and the LORD has laid on Him the iniquity of us all. He was oppressed and afflicted, yet He did not open His mouth; He was led like a lamb to the slaughter, and as a sheep before its shearers is silent, so He did not open His mouth."
