New " My Form Created" Poem

 We Choose Him In Devotion



Some brag to one as being chosen
But to this understanding, I think not
As we chose Him in devotion

For some religions believe to be chose in
Making themselves the only one in thought
As some brag to one as being chosen

But to this thought wrong to those in
When to the Lord one greatly sought
As we chose Him in devotion

It's truly our choice to make
Not that of men of who is greater
In His eyes we are equal to His sake

For in His words this made straighter
All are loved and many are called
By Him as our gracious creator 

In birth to our soul His presence installed
But some brag to one as being chosen
And to this human thought be appalled
As we chose Him in devotion

Thoughts: God does chose people(s) for special task in accordance to His will. And, He does predestine His people in giving a certain task as He already knows who will chose Him and be faithful when the time comes in fulfillment of the special task. A good article to read about being chosen by God at this website https://www.whatchristianswanttoknow.com/what-does-it-mean-to-be-chosen-by-god/. Being chosen does not mean better nor is something to brag about. And being chosen does not mean one being the only one having special connections to the Lord nor that only if chosen for a special task will one have salvation. All are equal in His eyes and all can have the gift of salvation. "For many are called, but few are chosen" (Matt. 22:14. NKJV). Abraham, Noah, The disciples were chosen for a special task; but, it was up to them to fulfill this task in devotion to Him.

Happy Valentine, Love of my heart!

  “For this reason I bow my knees to the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, from whom the whole family in heaven and earth is named, that He would grant you, according to the riches of His glory, to be strengthened with might through His Spirit in the inner man, that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith; that you, being rooted and grounded in love, may be able to comprehend with all the saints what is the width and length and depth and height— to know the love of Christ which passes knowledge; that you may be filled with all the fullness of God” (Ephesians 3:14-19.

Holy Spirit- Acrostic Poem

"But the anointing which you have received from Him abides in you, and you do not need that anyone teach you; but as the same anointing teaches you concerning all things, and is true, and is not a lie, and just as it has taught you, you will abide in Him." (1John 2:27. NKJV) "Now may the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, that you may abound in hope by the power of the Holy Spirit." (Romans 15:13. NKJV). "But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in My name, He will teach you all things, and bring to your remembrance all things that I said to you." (John 14:26. NKJV).

Two poems preview for "Growing Strong in The Lord - part one"

  Here two more preview poems from my Growing Strong in The Lord Collection. These are from where I left off in my Part One previews. I will be mostly posting preview poems, as promised, from my published books. Rarely will you see a new poem here on this site. These two poems from my Growing Strong in The Lord- Part One, "I Am Sowed By God's Words" , came out of knowing God was with me during an impact with my car and a full grown and huge doe deer. I listed these two poems just days apart, as I still felt the grace God delivered me that fateful day; reminding me of His grace and presence throughout my life.  It's Not Luck, But Grace ⭐ When one is thrown a curve ball Like something unexpected takes place That can bring an unforeseen pitfall One holds tight and does brace As one calls on the Lord above all He then sees you through this place In the aftermath you then recall The Lord got you through, you embrace For He can, no matter how big or small And then you rea
