Chime Of The Day October 21, 2024 I Want To Keep Living For Jesus! Viewed Last 24 Hours: 30 times By James Pemberton Other Poems by James Pemberton View / Post Comments Regarding This Poem I Want to Keep Living For Jesus!   I want to keep living for Jesus today! May I be attentive!   To what he has to say!   I want to seek the cross, and it’s true meaning. May HIS will in my life, become more revealing!   I want more of Jesus’ love  to daily surround me! It wasn’t I, but the Lord Jesus  that found me!   I want more of his word,  to nourish my mind! May his example in me, be what others find!   I want to seek his forgiveness!   I always need it! His blood can wash away any sin!  I believe it!   I want you Lord, to come and fill me up! Take your spirit’s oil,  and fill my empty cup!   Thank you Jesus for this!  And everything you do! Help me to press on! And keep loving YOU!   By Jim Pemberton
