NEW BEGINNINGS
(THE POEM)
Author; Mike Chaffin, Prose Editor, Stan McNutt 5/3/2020
“I WISH I COULD START OVER”, SHE SAID (SOME WISH THIS EVERY DAY)
REGRETS ABOUT JOBS OR RELATIONSHIPS, LIFE SEEMS TO HAVE GONE ASTRAY;
A SAMARITAN WOMAN CAME TO THE WELL, THOUGH FORBIDDEN AS EXPECTED’
FOR ONLY OUTCASTS WENT AT THAT TIME TO BE SHAMED, ALONE AND REJECTED..
JESUS, WHO KNOWS ALL THINGS, CAME BY, ASKING HER FOR A DRINK;
HE TOLD ALL EVENTS OF HER PRESENT CONDITION (A VERY SORRY PAST!)
SEEING HE WAS A JEW, SHE SAID, WHY ASK ME FOR A DRINK?
WHEN HE REVEALED HE WAS THE MESIAH (SHE BEGAN TO BELIEVE AT LAST!)
SHE BELIEVED, THEN SHOUTED TO ALL THE CITY, “MESIAH IS HERE WITHIN!”
“HE TOLD ME EVERYTHING I DID!, THEY BELIEVED AND WENT SEARCHING FOR HIM
RECEIVING JESUS AS HER SAVIOR, WAS HER NEW BIGINNING (NEW START!),
WOMEN WITH WATER POTS FOLLOWED HER, SO THEY COULD BE JUST AS SMART!
ARE YOU BURDENED WITH WOES OF THIS WORLD? REGRETS TOO HARD TO RECITE?
GOD HAS AN ANSWER IN MATHEW 11, LET ME TAKE YOU THERE TONIGHT;
“COME TO ME ALL WEARY AND BURDENED, AND I WILL GIVE YOU REST”,
“TAKE MY YOKE AND LEARN FROM ME, FOR I AM GENTLE AND HUMBLE OF HEART”,
“YOU’LL FIND REST FOR YOUR SOULS, FOR MY YOKE IS EASY, AND MY BURDEN IS LIGHT!”
YES, GOD OFFERS NEW BEGINNINGS, REMEDY-ING EARTHLY STRIFE,
HE’S WAITING FOR YOU TO ASK HIM, (GAVE-UP HIS ONLY SON), SO
“WHOSOEVER BELIEVES IN HIM, SHALL NOT PERISH”, (THAT’S ETERNAL LIFE!)
THE BIBLE SAYS… “ALL HAVE SINNED, AND COME SHORT OF THE GLORY OF GOD”
AND “THE WAGES OF SIN IS DEATH”, (ETERNAL, NOT FOR TODAY)
BUT GOD SHOWED HIS MERCY “WHILE YET WE WERE SINNERS”,
(THE PENALTY MAY YET BE WAIVED?)
FOR…”HE WHO CALLS ON THE NAME OF THE LORD, SHALL NOT PERISH,
BUT SHALL BE SAVED!”
Where Do I Stand Lord.?.. What About Me?,
If you want to know JESUS, Just Pray;
“LORD, I’M A SINNER, I NEED YOU, YOU DIED ON THE CROSS FOR ME;
PLEASE, TAKE CONTROL OF MY LIFE, AND FROM MY SINS SET ME FREE!
I GIVE CONTROL OF MY LIFE TO YOU, MAKE ME A NEW CREATION’
I ACCEPT YOU AS SAVIOUR AND LORD OF MY LIFE, WITH HUMBLE APPRECIATION!” AMEN!
