 Sir Ricky's Inspirational Poetry Corner

You received Christ Jesus the Lord,
So keep living as His people;
Worshipping as loved and adored,
As is stated in the Gospel.
 
Sink your roots deeply within Him,
And build on Him your foundation;
He will give you vigor and vim,
For He has fed you salvation.
 
Allow your faith to be strengthened,
And overflow with thanksgiving;
Your perseverance is lengthened,
Giving you hope in your living.
 
Be careful not to let someone,
Rob you of your faith and your trust;
Enticing you in having fun,
With the desires that you lust.
 
Nor through any misleading deceit,
That they may claim to be hallow;
For their doctrine is not concrete,
As their rationale is shallow.
 
They follow human traditions,
A worldly way in doing things;
And having no inhibitions,
Of what immorality brings.
 
All of God is living in Christ,
And God is being made complete;
For no longer to be enticed,
You feel agony of defeat.
 
It is not a circumcision,
That is performed by human hands;
Rather by His supervision,
By abiding in His commands.
 
Through baptism you had been dead,
And had been placed within His tomb;
But was brought back to life instead,
Given new birth not through the womb.
