The Cross

For my creative writing class, I wrote a shape poem about God and what He did to redeem us. I thought I would post it for you to read and remember the wonderful love God has for His people.

Happy Reading!

 Sin and
 Shame,
 The Lord
 Christ
 Bore that


 Awful pain. 
 His life He gave to redeem His people. He was nailed to a tree.
 He had been beaten, and now He suffered, on a cross, on Calvary.
 He took the punishment for His childrens’ sins, to set them free.
 Christ
 Alone
 Has set 
 Me free.
 He died 
 For me.
 Upon a tree
 Accursed
 By God,
 (But not
 For eternity)
 Because
 The sins
 Of His chosen
 Were placed
 Upon Him.
 How I Adore
 My King, my God, My Lord
 Who called me to be His child. And because of Christ,
 Before God I now stand, cleaner than the whitest wool, the softest snow.
 Because of His loving sacrifice, I am able to be forever with my God and grow
 In truth, in love, in righteousness, in hope and grace, and most of all, I can now know
 At least a little, the Creator, the King, the Father, the Son, the Spirit, three in One, the great I AM
 All because of Jesus Christ, the Prince of Peace, man and God in one, the sacrificial Lamb.
