I Was Born...  To Serve HIM!

 

I was born...  So that others may live...

Sharing with people 

God's power to forgive!

 

I was born...  To help others to see...

A savior who came. 

To set men free!

 

I was born...  To be God's holy vessel.

To be used by him... 

 Being his "utensil."

 

I was born...  To point others

 in a Godly direction.

Telling people of Christ' power

 and resurrection!

 

I was born...  To one day

write this poem.

And to be a Godly leader of

my family and home.

 

I was born...  To one day

 meet Jesus in the sky.

It could be this very hour. 

Or after I shall die...

 

I was born...  so that people

 like you would know.

Of a savior's salvation. 

How he loves you so!

 

You were born... To give

God thanks and praise!  

Why not serve him... 

 The rest of your days???

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!
