"THE 'GIFT'!"
©1998 Patricia L. Carpenter
{Poem Book 4}
There are many 'gifts' *
in the Word of God,
But, only ONE is needed
& that's The 'SON' of God!
If we have JESUS CHRIST
all the rest are not as important,
His 'Life' in us is all we need
The One Who is 'Omnipotent'! *
We are a 'witness' to His Light *
when 'filled' with only Christ,
So, occupy your time seeking Him
is my good advice.
As 'God is Love' *
& that's the greatest gift of all, *
It is the only gift we'll need
when Jesus comes to call.
'Love' will live on forever *
for all Eternity,
All other gifts will disappear
so, ask for the best gift for you & me. *
LOVE is the first of all the 'fruit' *
of The Holy Spirit,
So if He's 'living & reigning' in us *
HIS VOICE - we'll always 'hear' it. *
And Love will also conquer fear *
& help us be strong & brave,
'Overcomers' till the end
when we reach the grave.
