Wonder of Wonders That Jesus Loves Me

There is a very strong love that is given to me by the Lord Jesus Christ.
It is known as agape and is the strongest love there is.
He has chosen to love me for His own reasons.
I did nothing to gain this love for I am a wretched old sinner who deserved what I had coming.
But the Lord, in His love, reached out and saved me for His sake.
I am now through faith His to have charge over me.
I want and need direction of doing the right things that are pleasing to Him.
The Lord has saved me for a purpose.
I hope that purpose is to be writing and sharing thoughts with others for them to grow as they read.
The Lord has full command over my body and spirit and when I try to take some of it back I find my error and confess.
For I have no right to my own life since it now belongs to Jesus.
He is the One Who paid for it with His own blood.
Why He chose to love me so I don't know but the good thing is He does.
Bless the Lord and forget not all His benefits as the Scriptures tell us.
