I Was Beautifully Designed...

I Was Beautifully Designed…


 


I was beautifully designed


 and wonderfully made…


There’s nothing that God has given


to me that I would ever trade!


 


I was fashioned and created by God…


With one thing in mind.


To be an image of HIM…


In a body by his design!


 


He fashioned and formed me


 with the dust of the ground...


He gave me his love. 


It ‘s all around!


 


Though there are imperfections


and “inflictions” within…


God is patient and willing


to forgive my every sin!


 


Through life, I’ll endure trials,


heartache and despair...


God is with me...


He’s always there!


 


I know that his son, Jesus…


 Has given to me his grace.


He has provided for my life…


  “A resting place…”


 


I’m going to serve this God… 


Whom I love so much!


How I long for his presence… 


His “special touch…”


 


Thank you God...  For a “new” person


you’re helping me to be!


And may your light continue to shine


through people like me!

About the Poet
I and my wife have 4 grown children and currently live in the Pacific Northwest. I've spent much of my life doing volunteer work in the food distribution for the needy among local churches. Many of the poems I've written are a reflection of times of adversity as a reminder of God's love and faithfulness. I've found many opportunities to share my poems with those who are hurting and discouraged. I'm thankful for the reports of many of the poems touching people's lives. I hope that the poems included on Wordchimes will touch and bless your life too!
