Jesus Took My Place!

Jesus Took My Place!



Jesus died in the

 place for me!
So I can be with him,

for eternity!

 

My debt to him,

was paid IN FULL,
This is because

 he loves me so!

On his head, were placed

 the crown of thorns!
Enduring so much

pain and scorn.

The blood from his body

 began to flow,
His love for all of

mankind did show!

Three nails were in

 his feet and hands,
The pain he went through

 is hard to understand.

His life for mine,

 is what he gave!
He's no longer dead,

 but arose from the grave!

About the Poet
I and my wife have 4 grown children and currently live in the Pacific Northwest. I've spent much of my life doing volunteer work in the food distribution for the needy among local churches. Many of the poems I've written are a reflection of times of adversity as a reminder of God's love and faithfulness. I've found many opportunities to share my poems with those who are hurting and discouraged. I'm thankful for the reports of many of the poems touching people's lives. I hope that the poems included on Wordchimes will touch and bless your life too!
