He is...

After I posted my own "He is!" I came across this poem. I think it describes what I was attempting to describe a lot more effectively then what I did!

He Is.....


He is the First and Last, the Beginning and the End!
He is the keeper of Creation and the Creator of all!
He keeps the Architect of the universe and the Manager of all times.
He always was, He always is, and He always will be...
Unmoved, Unchanged, Undefeated, and never Undone!
He was bruised and brought healing!
He was pierced and eased pain!
He was persecuted and brought freedom!
He was dead and brought life!
He is risen and brings power!
He reigns and brings Peace!
The world can't understand him,
The armies can't defeat Him,
The schools can't explain Him, and
The leaders can't ignore Him.
Herod couldn't kill Him,
The Pharisees couldn't confuse Him, and
The people couldn't hold Him!
Nero couldn't crush Him,
Hitler couldn't silence Him,
The New Age can't replace Him, and
Donahue can't explain Him away!
He is light, love, longevity, and Lord.
He is goodness, Kindness, Gentleness, and God.
He is Holy, Righteous, mighty, powerful, and pure.
His ways are right,
His word is eternal, His will is unchanging, and His
mind is on me!
He is my redeemer,He is my Savior, He is my guide,
and He is my peace!
He has invested more in me than anyone else ever
could or ever will~
He is my Joy, He is my comfort, He is my Lord, and
He rules my life!
If all others forsake me...
He will be here!
I serve Him because His bond is love, His burden is
light, and His goal for me is abundant life.
I follow Him because He is the wisdom of the wise,
the power of the powerful, the ancient of days, the
ruler of rulers, the leader of leaders, the overseer
of the overcomers, and the sovereign Lord of all that
was and is and is to come.
And if that seems impressive to you, try this for
size.
His goal is a relationship with ME!
He will never leave me, never forsake me, never
mislead me, never forget me, never overlook me, and
never cancel my appointment in His appointment book!
When I fall, He lifts me up!
When I fail, He forgives!
When I am weak, He is strong!
When I am lost, He is the way!
When I am afraid, He is my courage!
When I stumble, He steadies me!
When I am hurt, He heals me!
When I am broken, He mends me!
When I am blind, He leads me!
When I am hungry, He feeds me!
When I face trials, He is with me!
When I face persecution, He shields me!
When I face problems, He comforts me!
When I face loss, He provides for me!
When I face Death, He carries me Home!
He is everything for everybody, everywhere, every
time, and every way.
He is God,
He is faithful.
I am His, and He is mine!
My Father in heaven can whip the father of this
world.
So, if you're wondering why I feel so secure,
understand this...
He said it and that settles it.
God is in control, I am on His side, and that means
all is well with my soul.
Everyday is a blessing for GOD Is!
Because He is, I am!

Although I agree overall with poem there is one part in particular that I DO NOT agree with. "His goal is a relationship with ME!" That is not correct. His main goal is to bring Honor and Glory to Himself. Also something that I wanted to add is that even Obama can't stop, control or even "change" Him. Praise the Lord!!

P.S. Thank you also for the correction of the sentence "His goal is a relationship with me." What you said was very true-- His goal is to glorify Himself. And also what you said about Obama-- that's true! Obama isn't in control-- God is! Yay!!! :-D

Hello! I took a little time to read through your blog and have enjoyed it. :) It is very encouraging to meet other baptists, online, who have a firm belief in the Saviour. God bless!
