Encouraging Mondays... Poetry

The Truth About Me



Wonderfully crafted by His design (Eph. 2:10)

Eternally grafted into the Vine (Rom. 11)

Firmly engraved in the palm of His hand (Isaiah 49:16)

Radically saved by the grace that He planned. (Eph. 5:8)

Lovingly sought by the One called I AM (Ex. 3:14)

Mercifully bought by the blood of the Lamb (1 Cor. 6:20)

Tenderly pruned by the hand of the Lord (John 15:2)

Deeply attuned that He is my reward. (Gen. 15:1)

Patiently showing me I am His own (Rom. 8:14-17)

Peacefully knowing this world’s not my home (John 17:14-16)

Undeniably saying He’s coming again (Rev. 22:7)

Faithfully displaying His love to the end (Matt. 28:20)


Just a little something I wrote on February 10, 1998, in response to a Bible Study I was doing at the time.



And now a wonderful YouTube video of the song lyrics I posted a few weeks ago... Michael Card and Phil Keaggy performing
