Poems of Lighthouse Bob
Peter #57
|
He walked by the sea of Galilee as He pointed my direction and said, “Drop your nets and I will make you a fisher of men...” I said, “Lord, lead me!” And Jesus said, “Follow me...” He poured a basin of water and He dressed with a towel as I watched His body and soul wash away grime and filth from my weary feet... I said, “Lord, teach me!” And Jesus said, “Follow me...” He spoke with words of authority as He proclaimed for me to come and walk upon waters turbulently tossed in my sinking faith... I said, “Lord, reach me!” And Jesus said, “Follow me...” He suffered Calvary's chastisement without a word as our eyes met in humility when I could not bare that I denied Him... I said, “Lord, release me!” And Jesus said, “Follow me...” He died surrendering arms wide open to receive my life committed wholly to Him for His soul, will, and purpose in my life... I said, “Lord, forgive me!” ...And I picked up my cross to follow Him. -Lighthouse Bob |
