Today... 'Christ In You' Poem by Roy Allen

Today... 'Christ In You'



Christ in you is the hope of glory
'Tis each Christians wondrous story.
The Fullness of the Godhead indwelt
can by each believer now be felt.

This great and glorious mystery
has now been made known to you and me.
Both Jew and Gentile become as one
each indwelt by God's Belovèd Son.

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
Colossians 1: 24 - 27
Now I rejoice in what was suffered for you, and I fill up in my flesh what is still lacking in regard to Christ's afflictions, for the sake of his body, which is the church. I have become its servant by the commission God gave me to present to you the word of God in its fullness— the mystery that has been kept hidden for ages and generations, but is now disclosed to the saints. To them God has chosen to make known among the Gentiles the glorious riches of this mystery, which is Christ in you, the hope of glory.

All quotations ©NIV

The Bible calls You by many names
each one giving a glimpse of Your glory.
Like a cut diamond radiating in the sun
with every facet depicting an aspect
of Your Divine Nature.
Today I have thought of You as
'Christ in you'
