The Joy from Knowing Jesus!

The Joy From Knowing Jesus!

 

Jesus gives me peace, mercy and joy!
His word in my life
I must daily employ.

 

His joy brings sweetness
to my troubled soul,
giving comfort no matter
where I may go.

 

His joy gives happiness
this world could never give.
It sustains me eeach day I live!

 

In his joy... I will most
certainly delight
.
For he is with me
every day and night.

 

From everything evil...
may I daily abstain,
living in the joy of Jesus’
precious name.

 

For in Jesus, my joy is now complete.
As I leave my burdens
at his feet.

 

Over the trials of life,
I’ll rise above.
Resting in Jesus!
His joy and love!

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!
