Easter Poems
Life from the Dead
Though we celebrate the Resurrection every week, it seems fitting that a day be set aside each year for special focus. Not only is it fitting to have a day like Easter, it seems fitting that it is in the spring when we see nature returning to life.

Jesus’ Triumphal Entry
Inspired by Mark 11 : 1 - 10. Written from the donkey’s point of view. In my poem, I highlight the mixed emotions I imagine Jesus must have felt, seeing He knew what was awaiting Him in the coming Passion week.

He chose to go alone
I woke up this morning singing "He could have called 10,000 angels but He chose to go alone"To think that one angel destroyed the whole of Sennacherib's army!To have absolute power and to choose not to use it is power indeed

The full extent of His love.
(John 13:1 NIV) It was just before the Passover Feast. Jesus knew that the time had come for him to leave this world and go to the Father. Having loved his own who were in the world, he now showed them the full extent of his love.

Written around Easter in 2019 when thinking of God's great love and sacrifice for mankind and the promise of Eternal life with Him.

The Shadow Of The Cross
I find myself focused on the place where I am standing under the watchful eye of God. I remember how my sin caused the Messiah to have to take my place to pay the penalty of my sin.
