Words that last

(c) By: Sharon Slaton Howell



"Heaven and earth shall pass away

but my words shall not pass away"

our blessed Master said.

(Matthew 24:35)

Those who love what Jesus said

naturally want others to feel the same.

And some write poems to honor Him,

in the hope that any of what

He said and taught

Shall reach the hearts

of those now living,

and those lives yet to be,

and so lodged within a person,

lead to obedience of God's Word --

to peace and joy and purpose

obtainable in no other way.
