12/19 Poem: Choosing Sides

Published by

on

When in this world
We start to fight
About right and wrong
Or Left and Right

Those whom Christ chose
To become His Bride
Need to take on
A whole ‘nother side

Dare we be broken
As Christ was for us?
Will we seek His face
Amidst all the fuss?

The laws of this world
Surely have their place
But cannot compare
To God’s saving grace

So if a disciple
You still want to be
Then take up your cross
And come follow me

To see living water
Flow out of your side
For we’ll save the world
When with Him we’ve died

“But when they came to Jesus and found that he was already dead, they did not break his legs.
Instead, one of the soldiers pierced Jesus’ side with a spear, bringing a sudden flow of blood and water.”

‭‭John‬ ‭19‬:‭33‬-‭34‬ ‭NIV
