"MY 'RICHEST' GIFT!"
© 1999 Patricia L. Carpenter
{Poem Book 7}
"My 'Richest' Gift you did reject
'JESUS' is His Name, *
What a Treasure ~ without measure
I offer ~ to 'ALL' ~ the same! *
The 'choicest' Gift in all the Earth
abundant, 'free' & clear, *
Held out to 'every'one on Earth *
especially YOU, My dear.
Yes, 'you' ~ the READER of this Poem
whose been 'seeking' for The Lord,
I pray your hand has been stretched out
to 'RECEIVE' God's Precious 'Word'. *
Please 'hasten' to take My Gift
reject It not ~ anymore,
Then you will surely find
I have 'great things' in store.
I'll help you through the darkness
into My vast new Light, *
Turn your 'weakness' into Power
so the devil ~ you can fight.
You will no longer be 'indifferent'
to My call of Love,
As you 'practice' loving others *
& My 'Salvation' ~ you will not shove!
No, you will not shove away
The most Greatest Treasured Gift of all,
In fact, you will soon LEARN
at 'every turn' My Name you'll call!
For I Am your 'Security' *
both here & Up Above,
As The SPIRIT marks you 'Present' *
when you stand before 'The Heavenly Dove'.
Take My Words & 'eat' them
& DO as I command, *
Be joined 'as one' with Me *
& hold unto My Hand.
I'll 'use' you for My Glory *
to bring 'others' to The Fold, *
Not only when you're young
but even while you're old! *
Stay 'True' & always love Me *
then One Day you'll see,
I will come & get you *
to be 'AT HOME' with Me! *
Forever & forever
for ALL 'Eternity',
You & I together ~
in one great big ~ HAPPY ~ FAMILY!"
