I Know that My Redeemer lives with all my heart and being! The best way I testify of Christ is through what I write so I am going to share 2 poems that i have written that express how i feel for my Redeemer, My Savior and My Brother. I have such a strong a deep love for christ that words can not adequately describe. I owe him so much and i am endebted to him for eternity for what he has done on my behalf and what he did so willingly.
My Savior:
My Savior
As he bled, as he wept
our faces flashed through his mind
he knew that for us he suffered
the pain he felt so strong
as he knelt in Gethsemane
His thoughts were turned to us
as they placed the crown upon his head
his heart was set, his mind made up
as they whipped his back and body
he would not turn his back on us
still harder the task grew
he must suffer death to save us
yet he kept on going, he would not falter
he knew it was the only way
to save his brothers and sisters
he simply stood there as they shouted
"Crucify Him!" not a word he spoke
nor a finger did he raise to them
though it would have saved him
if he proved he was the son of God
but for us he would not speak
he had promised he would save us
so he carried the cross
through the cities and towns
until he reached the hill calvary
as they nailed him to the cross
he cold only see his little brothers and sisters
the one s he was dying so they'd be saved
he laid there still, as they drove the nails into his feet
no movement did he make, not a tear did he shed
as they raised him up to die for us
he told his mother of his love for her
then he did what no mortal man would do
he told the father a small, yet powerful phrase
"forgive them, they know not what they do"
His mission complete
he said his last few words
he'd speak as a mortal man
"it is finished"
the earth did quake
the heavens cried
the son of God had died.
My Brother:
My Brothers Hug
You were my strength
when none was left
you were the one who cared
when all others seemed gone
my heart was saved
by your great care
Never did you leave my side
Through all my pains and strife's
I always knew you'd be there
when times got hard to bear
I knew I'd never be alone
No matter how hard life got
Now my goal is to see your face
i know you know mine so well
but you i've never seen before
you love me beyond all wors
you want me to be with you agin
so you can hold me close to you
like you always try to do
when you reach out to hold me
is when i can feel you near to me
it is something i don't want to lose
i know that if i live right
i'll see your face again someday
you'll be hold me in your arms
just like you've always tried and dreamed
when i left for earth
you held me so close and long
you didn't want to let me go
but you knew how much they needed me
so with a final hug and kiss goodbye
you sent me on my journey down
you made me promies i'd return
you said to keep my family safe
i hope i'm keeping that promise
because i want to feel your hug again
to be able to see your face so proud
because your little sister made it home
just like you always knew she would.
These are my testimony of Christ. I know that he lived and still lives and that he loves us so much. He wants more then anything for us to return to him and our Heavenly Father. He suffered for us so that we could.
