HIS SON - FROM GOD'S PERSPECTIVE. ********************************************* I have a SON. One who delights MY eyes - and fills My heart. ONE who is One with ME. Yet - for a time - limited in part By the confines of a human frame . And in an earthern vessel detained . In obedience this was so ... I chose the route .. He chose to walk its way . Each step defined in love - to ME . And to the fallen souls HE came to save . No other way - nor other man - Could start and finish - what I planned . I spoke - HE spoke - and dead men walked Blind eyes could see -the dumb began to talk Limbs that were bent and weak - stood strong And leapt about with joy . All inhibitions - fears and cares- That bowed the head - now gone . Crowds thronged this Man Who changed their lives - Who gave them hope - and set them free. Free from the bondages of sin and pain - Free to begin again - with purpose and design Free to follow this New Way Or turn back - forget But - free. I watched - and heard HIS prayers - Great cries of anguish - for the lost and slain HE knew I heard - He knew I cared - HE trusted that HIS tears and groans To ME - were not in vain . I heard the praise - I also heard the jeers - I felt the lash that tore His skin - But only HE could see MY face That held HIM steady in the storm ... Right to the end - When through the torture - wracked in pain HIS cry to ME was - " It is done ! " The body that was man had died - But GOD rose up - triumphant from the grave Death was defeated - Salvation was secured . Now - all who will - can enter in - Through MY Beloved SON - And HIS own Blood - eternally outpoured . Saved from condemnation - and eternal loss With its fears - and grip of Hell. Saved to be loved - forevermore secure . Saved to receive a righteous crown - HIS just reward Now Heaven resounds with joyful song and praise As once again - HE takes HIS rightful Kingly place - With ME ......for You ...... The ones HE came to save . IT IS SO TRUE THAT EVERY TIME SOMEONE GIVES THEIR HEART TO THE SAVIOUR ...ALL HEAVEN REJOICES - AS ONE MORE IS SNATCHED FROM THE GRIP OF HELL - AND ENTERS INTO THE KINGDOM OF THE LIVING GOD .... WILL YOU BE THE ONE TODAY TO MAKE HEAVEN HAPPY ? with love from S.C.Mitchell Vote for this poem
