'He Came For You! ' Poem by Linda Winchell

If you think that God’s not working in your life
Just take a real good look at all surroundings.
He’s in the air you’re lungs are breathing in
His hand is in all creation… abounding.

He’s in the songs of all the birds that sing
His hand is in the blue of skies above.
His work can be viewed in everything
All created… from His Fathers’ undying love.

Now when you think that you’re all alone
Look around and take a much closer look.
If only to sit and read His word
As it was written… in the Holiest of books.

He will take you on a journey
To lands never viewed.
Of a time… that He did walk the earth
If only but…in His thirtytwo.

A babe born… in a lowly manger
Born of a Virgin… and a carpenter.
A young man who went into the entire world to teach.
In a manner of parables divinely… did this man “Jesus” speak.

“To know the Father is to know the Son.”
His words were understood but by a few.
Until one day…when He picked up OUR cross
Then everyone to late then … sadly knew.

That He was sent from a higher source
To live in love… and walk amongst us all.
So that we could be washed clean of sin… through His blood
And one day with Jesus …walk His Father’s halls.
