Obeying God in every area of my life For to follow God with all my heart To obey God, the lost I must tell “Go and tell others” was his last command; So when I am asked what obedience means to me |
Author notes
\Then Jesus came up and said to them, "All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Therefore, as you go, disciple all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to obey all that I have commanded you. And remember, I am with you each and every day until the end of the age." \ (Matthew 28:18-20)

great poem
I love it. I do have a problem testifying. So, it hit me hard. -
That times about.. hmm.. infinity is how big I am smilin'. Tim, there are so many aspects of this poem that deserve praise. Uou displayed how you are putting God first, through such vivid detail, metaphor, and figurative language that was not only easy to understand but easily relatable to. You out did yourself on this one. This could honestly be my favorite of yours yet! Another thing that was great was that it kind of shakes the reader from their seat in a way... you can look at this poem and see a true Christian with the right intentions, and use that as a motivation to increase in your spiritual life. Excellent job! I honestly love this, no ice cream cone, no joke, I really, truly felt happier after I read this. Congrats, Tim, that was truly genius in many, many ways. Awesome job again!
*God Bless*

This reads like a personal creed. It's biblically accurate, as well as a good write. What stands out most to me is your comment on what could keep you from the Lord: yourself. This is very true.
One thing: In the first line you used 'areas'. I believe the word should be singular. That's all...
Good job, li'l brother.
Catchya later!...

Wonderful job on this Tim! I agree with Melissa, I too foolishly went through my younger years without a single glance at the Lord...even when I knew better! I'm thankful for the grace and mercy extended to my by the Father! Keep up the good fight! Thanks for sharing this and best of luck to you in the contest! God bless! Noble1

Amen lil brother!!! I LOVE this! You dear, are allowing His light to shine through you... and I think that's probably the greatest pleasure one of His children could have on this earth... to show Him...
Sharcu, I am SO very proud of you... I want you to know that! You are serving Him in your youth... I live with many regrets dear... not serving Him when I was young... is probably the deepest regret that I have...
Stay strong in Him dear friend... He is SO very worthy of living for... I am so glad you know this... you're such a blessing to me dear!
Love ya lil brother! God bless ya! ~Melissa -
