The Sacrifice 2009Lord, there is so much you give, without it we could not live. Not what we give and then regain, but what we seek in Your Holy name. How would I give You back a day of rain, that waters the earth that lives again? How would I repay a sunny day, that warms the earth on which we pray? How would I feed the hungry and the weak, without the manna our ancestors did seek? How would I comfort the hurting heart, if I did not know You from the start? How would I walk in the light of Your Word, if the darkness had not first been heard? How would I know my redeemer, Your Son, if the sacrifice of crucifixion had never been done? Hebrews 9:26 ...otherwise Christ would have had to suffer many times since the creation of the world. But He has appeared once for all through the gathering of the ages to do away with sin by the sacrifice of Himself. Susan Hebert Ajaz copyright 2009 poetrypublisher.com/sajaz |
