5133 Was It Called Love 28 February 2006 What was faith this honour to give Words to understand things that were to live The kind of faith given in hope this charity of Jesus Christ to hold Such was a feeling in being a believer not to be void of happiness or true gold So was it true - His death was part of a plan this point of time to be crucified and true In standing up for conviction as to lies others might just say would never do Nails to hang by in evidence scarred hands pierced to the point of blood Saved from dishonour - safe to be real this faith - was it called love “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.” John 3: 16 KJV a poet who cares |

Seems we all try to put our understanding around the kind of love it took for Jesus to suffer for our sin and sake. Something for us to think about when we're in pain, begging for relief, right? Thank you for sharing this insightful piece. Rae |

So much comes down to interpretation where I write my pieces in a process of line upon line , precept upon precept even I have to go back and interpret my own works, after I have composed the last line of each a poet who cares |

A lot of hard truth in your poem. I really liked it. My favourite lines were: Nails to hang by in evidence scarred and this faith - was it called love Yes, the nails were evidence of what happened and it was His faith, and His faith is love. Great write. Sheri Adams Jesus lives in my heart! He can in yours too!!! |
