Sins for Sanctification
Here is another 2016 poem, this time focusing in on the good grace of our Lord Jesus Christ. (I promise to at some point write some new poetry, but for now, I hope you are uplifted by some of my older poetry.)
I am the nail in His hand
I am the sword in His side
I am the thorn in His crown
the loudest in the crowd
screaming CRUCIFY
...crucify…
But in His deep love my
sins are washed away in
His blood, by His blood
I am made new, my heart
is SANCTIFIED
...sanctified…
Made blameless in the sight
of God by the power of grace
not by anything I’ve done
so that in my life Christ may
be GLORIFIED
...glorified...
