Salvation



Strip away your old evil nature.
Clothe yourself in tenderhearted mercy...
gentleness… patience.
Change inwardly to a trusting heart.
Put to death your sinful, earthly ways.
Replenish this new nature
Allow the soft words of Christ
to be woven into the fiber of your life.
Open yourself to the word of God.
Believe in God's saving grace.
Let his spirit fill you;
and love bind you in harmony.
Let Christ's peace rule your heart.

Colossians 3:5 - 3:9-17


My daughter's conformation was Easter Sunday. Just thought this picture went with this poem I wrote awhile back.
