 Sir Ricky's Inspirational Poetry Corner

If there is any fillip in Christ,

Any comfort brought from His love;

Then let not yourself be enticed,

By the things not found from above.

 

Any deed done through the Spirit,

With affection or sympathy;

Complementing through your merit,

When showing sincere empathy.

 

Complete your joy in the same mind,

Have the same love as Jesus Christ;

For being perfectly aligned,

With the One who was sacrificed.

 

Nothing from selfish ambition,

Nor with vainglory or conceit;

But humbled through inhibition,

Absent of cheating or deceit.

 

Look at interests of others,

Allow this mind to be in you;

Catering unto your brothers,

The same as Jesus Christ would do.

 

Though He was in the form of God.

Did not count as equality;

Christ was perfect and was not flawed,

Having the same ability.

 

He took the form of a servant,

Being born to resemble men;

To boaster an encouragement,

For the righteous highway again.

 

Being found in the human form,

Obedient up until death;

Death on the cross was not the norm,

But was hung until final breath.

 

God has highly exalted Him,

Bestowed on Him above all names;

Giving out a spiritual vim,

That everyone else proclaims.

 

For at the name of Jesus Christ,

Every knee bending to bow;

As Heaven and earth is enticed,

Everyone will take a vow.

 

Since every tongue will confess,

Professing that Jesus is Lord;

To the glory that God will bless,

Showing He is loved and adored.
