This Man < !signature-->(Died for me and you, his name Jesus) I have come to understand a man died for me, He gave of him self unconditionally. Never once swerving from predestine path knowing of his birth, adolescence, final walk on this earth and then his death given for all to see. In immaculate- conception He was conceived, born on star light night in a manger. Swaddling cloth He was wrapped presented in humility, becoming a fine carpenter. At twelve a minister of the truth keeping nothing secret from those in synagogues and temples. Reaching out to all His goal never neglecting a soul, a man walking in faith and refined dignity. Believing that all-even ones not yet to be, should be given to opportunity. His faith unsurpassed by no other, challenged by all who felt they to knew truths worthy of attention. His death preordained written along time ago, a sacrificial gift for all I am told. Now reining a king in the heavens above, still possessing of the love he shared here on the earth, teaching our forefathers the fruitages of the spirit, Ten Commandments and much more. Sometimes I find it so hard to believe that He died for me so willingly, so that I may live for eternity. My walk on this earth has not always been in purity, I have done what I wanted, giving of self the best that I can, but now that I ponder what this one whom I never have meet has done without so much as blink of eye, I am feeling grateful and humbled and hope that my sincere thanks He will accept from me. By, Cerenity I want to say to all at passions that I am so thankful for all of your kind words spoken to me out of total kindness, and that I hope all of you have the merryest Christmas and Happy New Year.

What a lovely gift Cerenity. Happy Holidays to you and yours... Karilea If I whisper, will you listen?... I would rather be silent and write, than speak loudly and be bound. KRJ |
