Lovely message, the Atonement of Christ did indeed pave the way for redemption if we believe in Him. Good use of rhyming and a great spiritual message to learn from. faye

I like the theme of this poem. Relying on the faith with Jesus. You can't go wrong and you will always be on the right path when you follow the teachings of Jesus Christ. I enjoyed reading the poem from beginning to end.

A well written peom praising the Lord and his everlasting compassion and the hope and knowledge that he will be there for you in your darkest hour. When you "think all hpoe is lost", Christ will be at your side. A poem full of promise of light at the end of the tunnel and of not having to face the world alone. Well done great write

A great poem for Christians. There's so many religions, and they all seem to have the answer. I know they all believe in the same God. The Muslims and Christians in the Middle East seem to disprove that. The Hindus have several Gods, and Buddhism is another story. This really made me think. Les

    Hi Les,
    Thank you for the thoughts to ponder. Yes, there are a lot of religions out there. I do like your thought that they all believe in the same God. If only everyone acted like it. There are too many wars in history that were fought in the name of religions that teach we should all respect and love one another.
    There is no better compliment than your closing line--that it made you think. Thank you!

This is a great presentation. The artwork is special and awesome at the same time. The background with the white font add to the specialness of the words. Nice use of rhyme to add to the flow and enjoyment.

I see no changes. Good job and thanks for sharing an uplifting poem of faith.

What a beautiful poem. It's light enough to be accepted and not heavy-handed into preaching. It takes a well-known bible verse and uses it as an inspiration to consider Christ's strength and to turn to him when our own strength seems low. Enjoyable, uplifting read.
