Creator on the Cross

Christ is risen! I hope you’re having a wonderful Easter!

I decided to spice up the monotony of blogging and try writing a poem for this special day. By the way, I am not a poet. At all. Nonetheless, I hope you enjoy reading my jumbled mess of words and feel encouraged on this blessed day.

 

I knit ev’ry mocker while still in the womb,

I crafted the stone in front of My tomb,

And I made the wood in My heavy cross.

I saw that day before time was invented,

And I could have stopped it if I had wanted.

But I knew that others couldn’t have saved you.

Your sins and your shame were weighty upon Me,

But I hung on the cross so you could be free.

I’ll never regret bearing all of your shame

Even when I see you walking away.

Because I’m alive, you have hope that won’t fade.

I’m not a Savior who’s still in the grave.

So just trust in My name and trust in My Word.

Tell of the cross and the grave I have conquered.

 

And He Himself brought our sins in His body up on the cross, so that we might die to sin and live for righteousness; by His wounds you were healed. (1 Peter 2:24 NASB)

Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who according to His great mercy has caused us to be born again to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead. (1 Peter 1:3 NASB)

Happy Easter!
