Thank You Jesus!



 



Jesus... I've been living in



defeat and desparation.



My life filled with doubt,



fear and tension.



 



 For so long... I've cried to



 you for peace and joy.



Desiring to live the life



I could really enjoy.



 



I'm tired of only giving to



you just "50 percent."



So much of my time has



been wastefully spent.



 



Take my life now,



 Take total control.



Renew my mind...



And make me whole!



 



Thank you Lord, for changing



my life throughout...



Helping me to understand what



 being a Christian is all about!

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!
