Happy Resurrection Sunday!
22 years ago on this day, April 4th, it was also resurrection Sunday. I remember because that was when I trusted in Jesus as my Savior.
Here is a short poem I wrote this weekend in thinking about Jesus:
The Greatest Story Ever Told,
Of a God so bold,
Coming down in human form,
to be crucified and tortured,
My every sins He bored,
To save me from hell,
to have me restored,
As I behold Him on the Cross I’m torn,
Yet beholding Him I’m transformed.
You are a good poet, Pastor Jim! An excellent poem and I would say, a modern part of the apostles’ creed. Blessings to you, Nancy, and your kids!
Far too kind in your words! Brother Kent, have a blessed resurrection Sunday! Hope you get to enjoy a good dinner tonight too!
Thank you for sharing your devotional poem Jim. In Him we are transformed indeed…thus we are the original Transformers!
Amen Alan! How is your resurrection Sunday going?
It is going well, I had the privilege of being in church this morning…it was amazing!
I was praying for you with this! So glad that you were able to go!
Thank you Mandy. It was a truly wonderful time of blessing which touched me deeply. Even under covid restrictions the welcome was very warm. I may go back if I can get bookings.
I will be praying, keep me posted!!

He is risen.
Amen! Praise God for your conversion! Love and blessings you you, Nancy and kiddos on this Resurrection Sunday!

Love the poem, Jim. Happy second birthday!
I especially like these lines:
“As I behold Him on the Cross I’m torn,
Yet beholding Him I’m transformed.”
Amen and amen!
I know why editors don’t accept religious poetry – but this is very good.
