My Testimony – The Poem…

Where would I be,
if God had changed his mind on 0.0 BC?
That moment in History
That changed my life
For all eternity

Where would I be?
Where would I be?

Sadly,
I probably would have been history
My death – a mystery
Because I was too foolish and rebellious
To do what was best for me
Exposed myself to things
That could have killed me
But Thank God, Thank God!
Jesus had His hand on me!

But what if,
What if God had changed His mind on 0.0 BC?

Lets see…
Well, I’d be in the presence of Sin - daily
Succumbing to its power -constantly
Praying for mercy,
As I Repent of my sins -
With a Lamb (ok a Ram) -yearly
Forgiveness of sins?
Only if I were holy
And without Jesus
I couldn't even bask in HIS glory!
That was reserved for the Priestly
Because in His presence…
I could die –instantly!

But Thank God, Thank God!
He didn’t change His mind on 0.0 AD
Jesus did die on a cross for me
Now sin succumbs to HIS authority
And I’ve been redeemed
Because He paid the penalty
And He left behind His Spirit
As my testimony!
Changing my life…
For all eternity…
