This is a poem that I wrote shortly after becoming born again of the Holy Spirit.
Teach me my Father to be like Jesus
in everything I say and do
teach me my Father to love my neighbour
and not to abuse the things from You
Teach me to share the gifts You send me
of love and joy and peace of mind
teach me to see the soul reaching out
from eyes that Satan has made blind
Teach me to lean on Your love my Father
change this heart of doubt and fear
teach me to say to whoever You send
'Come inside, there's welcome here'
Teach me my Father to be like Jesus
and not to care for worldly things
teach me to tell the poor and the sick
'My Lord has healing in His wings'
Teach me to tell them of Your love
of how Your work is being done
simply because - my wonderful Father
I believed upon Your Son
'Jesus answered and said unto them 'This is the work
of God, that ye believe on Him whom He hath sent.'
John ch.6 v.29

Amen, Brenda! Beautiful!
Hi Martha Jane, how could we not want to keep learning God's ways from our beautiful Saviour? God bless you.
"Teach me to lean on Your love my Father"
Amen. We can not do this without Him.
Thank you, Brenda.
Hi Sandi, absolutely right. Once we are born again the Holy Spirit becomes our teacher and leads into all truth. God bless.
Wonderful.
Thank you for keeping this Blog going.
God bless.
Thank you Victor for your kind communion. All glory to our Father, God, and His precious Son our Saviour. God bless.
Should have read comment not communion. That is technology for you.
Hi Brenda,
Beautiful, truth-filled poem, as always. God has truly gifted you to share His Word through poetry. May God bless you and your lovely ministry,
Laurie
Hi Laurie, God wants us all to be saved, and as part of the body of Christ on earth we are all given gifts to share, as you have been given too. All glory to our beautiful Saviour Jesus. God bless you Laurie as you share what God has given you to share.
Brenda, I love your poem, it is truly beautiful!
Plus, I love that verse!
God Bless!
Thank you Lon for your kind comment. The poem reflects exactly how I felt when I wrote it. God bless.
Brenda, do you know if child of God is still around, I used to follow her blog, but I see she has not done a blog post for several years. If she is still around, I would like to send her an email.
Hi Lon, I haven't seen her blog for ages, I just looked on my list of followers and could not see her blog there.
I sure hope she is well!
I was able to go to her blog by clicking on it seeing you have her blog added to your blog list.
I looked on my list of followers. Would it come up as Child of God there?
No, the name of her blog is titled, CPR Ezra 8:23
Hi Lon, the last time child of God left a post on her blog was on August 3rd 2018. I checked it on my extended blog list.
Brenda, I admire your humility and commitment to serve the Lord. I pray that the Holy Spirit continues to guide you and keep the fire in your heart burning.
Thank you for your very kind comment Lux, I pray this too for all of us who are being taught by the Holy Spirit. It is a journey that is filled with trials. God bless you with all that God has for us in Jesus.
