Why I Write Poems for Christ

One of the joys of my life these past few years of having access to the world on-line is writing poems honoring God's Holy Son. Why do I feel so inspired to do this? It is the hope that what our great Master taught and practiced shall reach people who have yet to become acquainted with these sublime teachings. And opening their thoughts to the Word, have it lodged within their hearts. And so lodged, lead an individual to obey what Jesus said. I am convinced that there is no other way under the sun to find the peace and joy and purpose of life.

Jesus said of His words that they shall not pass away, though everything else perish. And those adoring souls who do what they can, who use whatever ability they feel God has given them, can see their poetry -- if they listen to inspiration divine -- reach the hearts of those now living. And those lives yet to be. Can we who are His think of any activity higher?
