Today's Gift Poem by Sylvia Frances Chan

Today's Gift

I consider every Blessing / Wealth
as a gift from God,

yes the God of the Bible,
the Bible's Words are not made-up words
like last week's comment from Australia, no!

The Bible is full of real words,
recorded words from countless years ago,
before the birth of Jesus Christ,

made by existing living people of that time
and who have complete science and logic in their heads
and not just made up words (he used the phrase 'invented words') like that person from Down Under said to me

outrageous that he can just say 'made-up words', really not correct of that person,

today it's Sunday,
I want to emphasize God's Word in this poem
on our cozy PoemHunter Poem Site

when I'm talking about the Christians or the Bible,
are these wise words of the saints before the time of Jesus
and these words had been always passed on,
to what we can read now,
from generation to generation,

those Christians also knew the first Christians,
probably before this Christian era was the period of the all-gods, you can also read that in the Bible,

well, at first I wanted to talk about the vagabond,
but am strayed to God's Words in the Bible,
that's always good

this bum has arrived now in the Netherlands
together with other refugees from Africa and Ukraine,
my high regard for this wonderful hospitality.

Lord Jesus, thank you for this Sunday
for all Your blessings and Your victories,
I think of the Sea of ​​Galilee,
where Your disciples failed to catch fish
and cried out to you, but they did not recognize you,
but when you caught the fish,
they immediately saw that it was You,
Our Jesus, the Only Conqueror,
we praise You,
but You remain simple and humble,
Lord Jesus, we want to be more and more like You
we thank you for your great Love and Care,
Amen
