"Live in me"

Jeffrey A Evans Sr 1970 (Greenville)



Father mold me,
Into a servant that glorifies you.
Place upon me,
Your choice of Heavenly tools.
By your grace, Lord,
Fill my heart with memories of the cross.
Whereas, I will be humbly faithful
And will testify to the lost.
King of kings and Lord of lords,
Work through me, that you are pleased.
Creator of all things,
Come into my heart, give it comfort and peace.
In me, Lord,  create someone new,
For your love is so pure and so true.
Live in me....please, Jesus,
So that I can live for you.

    I hope this poem is light on the heart of all that see it. I hope that it can give an avenue, for those that do not know Jesus, to get to know Him.

    You can comment on the poem if you would like.
    Thank you, Jeffrey A Evans Sr.
