a flower speaks
While assigned to write a poem on our mission trip, this is what transpired. A tulip just a flower Yet stands for so much more A tulip just a symbol Yet it speaks of Christ our Lord It first tells of depravity Living deep within And then of the election That God has chosen for some to win The atonement that is limited Though some may disagree It must be efficacious, remember To truly set men free Irresistible this grace that draws I cannot tell Him “no” Salvation does not hinge on man But on the God who chose What did I do to gain this state? Nothing on my own So since no work can merit it Perseverance is of God alone! |
