 Sir Ricky's Inspirational Poetry Corner

poetryofadove
You have followed my teaching,
My conduct and aim in life;
My faith and love outreaching,
With patience over the strife.
 
Persecutions to suffer,
Happened with my steadfastness,
Leaning on Christ to buffer,
To retain my righteousness.
 
Persecutions I endured,
From them, the Lord rescues me;
A godly life is assured,
While He has set me free.
 
Evil men and seducers,
Will go from bad to worse;
As deception pursuers,
They rob and cheat as they curse.
 
Continue in what is taught,
And what you firmly believe;
Since childhood you have sought,
For salvation you receive.
 
You know the Holy Scriptures,
Which has been making you wise;
As your heart and mind captures,
Wisdom that opens your eyes.
 
Salvation through faith in Christ,
Scripture from the breath of God;
A doctrine that has enticed,
For you to honor and laud.
 
So that man of God be complete,
Unto good works is furnished;
Total truth without deceit,
As righteously accomplished.
