Poem Commentary

This piece just came into my mind a few days ago like so many do. Thanks Lord.

PREDESTINED

Predestined before my birth,Jesus took me by the hand
He showed me all in this sin filled land
Trials shall be throughout my whole life
Discipline to strengthen me through my strife
Grace and Mercy someday shall be mine
Prosperity He'll give me from time to time
He said "You must be purified by the fire"
Perfected as gold is by the hour
Money means very little to me
It's the root of evil from Satan,"My enemy"
God saved my life so many times
By His Grace He gave me words that rhymes
My sermons come in truth and love
So people can receive Him as a dove
If your life has much misery
Remember the Lord is the loving God of thee

Marie, thank you. I really enjoyed your poem I've been able/have time to read so far. I mostly do my poetry o n Mary's Bridge now as there is so much love there. Do you know Mamasan? If so do you know how she is?? I'm worried. God peace to you. Sam.

Poetry is what gets lost in translation.
