Laureltree Posted March 20, 2008 Report Share Posted March 20, 2008 Hi Guys & Gals ,Each Easter I try to think of something special to do for the ones I love,this Easter I wanted to give a piece of me to all of you.I know there are times in our lives where we struggle to see how the gospel helps us,but none of us have struggled as much as our savior.I've looked back over all the adversity I have had to go through, and I see the blessings I was given along the way.No blessing compares to that of the love of our savior, and the gift he given us.My gift to you this Easter, is an easter poem I wrote for all of you.....one I send to all of you with love.....I pray as you start this week, look upon the blessings you are given , not the trials you must bare.....Love & PrayersLaurelTreeMy Savior, My brother, The SonA vote was cast ……Their voices were heard …….You stood to take the blame ………Not uttering a word ……In shackles to be bound ……..You follow the crowd …..Thistles tightly woven ……Upon your head you were crowned ……With laughter and mocking …….Upon the cross you lay ……As each nail was driven hard …..So in place they would stay …..These last words you uttered softly ……Father forgive them, for they know not what they do ….You took upon our sins …..You left us without a clue ………Descended into heaven ……On the third day you had risen ……..You shared with us the gospel …….To save us all from spiritual prison ……As the years have passed …….Have we forgotten what you’ve done …..The gift you have given ….My savior, my brother, the son ………Written by: SMBMarch 20' 2008 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
