A Wife in Love
Viewed Last 24 Hours: 2 times

By Michael P. Johnson
Other Poems by Michael P. Johnson


        A wife in love

You say my love for you has gone

The devil’s made you blind

For in my life I’ve found God’s Son

I’ve no one else in mind

 

Don’t think my love for Christ is strange

For you! I’m always there

The way I feel Jesus won’t change

The love we have to share

 

But from The Lord I’ll never stray

However long I live

He loves in such a special way

No one on earth can give

 

The Lord’s no rival to your love

There’s no one else but you

But through The Truth Jesus above

Gives birth to life anew

 

My love for you will always be

But Jesus’ love’s much more

He loves one’s heart and soul to free

And comes to knock our door

 

So why not bid the Lord inside?

The way He came to me

Give Jesus now your foolish pride

And then His love you’ll see

 

He’ll come in truth when you agree

To cleanse your soul of sin

But only you possess the key

To let God’s Son within

 

It only takes a moment love

No need for you to fear

Just ask Jesus to send His Dove

I’ll be waiting here.....

About the Poet
I never wrote a word of poetry in my life. Till the day Jesus took my hand and touched my soul.....I invite your response. However most poems are not about me! Very few are. But the feed-back good, bad or indifferent is always desired. Not meant to offend, but I write about many things in many a guise. Of life, death, lost, found, saved, backsliders, new comers, repenting souls, doubting hearts, heathens, Christians, fire, water, Satan's daughter, wallowing in sin, saved, made sound walking in Light, graceful righteous. Suffering, ecstatic, bored, excited, sad, delighted, Sick, well, lame, able, living, dying, etc. etc. etc. Writing about anything, everything and everyone as the spirit leads. All meant to reveal, waken, revive, encourage, shame, help. Gladden, pick up, exalt, portrait, liberate. Again over 99% of my work is not about me. Although at times I write as though I were or am. Speaking e.g. in the first person. This is quite common even in the bible itself. Prophets speak of themselves, then God speaks, again the prophet, then God......Quite often it's difficult to distinguish whom it is that at any given time is speaking or narrating.
