THE GREATEST GIFT . . .

ART & POETRY BY PAUL & KATHY BOECHER

As we walk through the season of Lent, I can’t help but think of the greatest gift that God has given us. There is no way to repay him except to follow Him. Jesus is that gift and He has bestowed us with eternal life in paradise. Our gratitude should be shown through our walk here on earth.

I had no gift to offer on the day of His birth. My voice had no great songs to sing.

What could I bring that had any worth? What words could I possibly bring?

He gave up His life, He suffered and died; His hands and feet nailed to a tree.

When the sword pierced a gash in His most precious side, I know that He bled there for me.

He died – my redeemer, but He chose to do so. The grave could not hold to this man.

He overcame death, forgave all my sins and it all was a part of His plan.

For all that He’s done I can never repay. His love is so far beyond me.

And so I come to Him and most humbly pray that His servant I always will be.

About atimetoshare.me

As I reach the end of my years, I find I have a lot of good information stored up in this old decrepit mind of mine. If I don't write it all down, it may vanish and no one will have the advantage of my thoughts. This is why this blog exists. I love the Lord, Jesus with all my heart and soul. I know I'm undeserving of all He's done for me, but I also know that His love is beyond my comprehension. I've always wanted to write. I never kept diaries, but tucked my thoughts in my head for future reference. I use them now in creating stories, plays, poetry and my blog. I continue to learn every day. I believe the compilation of our time spent with God will have huge affect on the way we live. I know I'm a sinner and I need a Savior. I have One through Jesus, Christ. My book, "Stages - a memoir," is about the seven stages of life from the perspective of a woman. It addresses all the things girls and women go through in life as they travel it with Jesus, and it is available on Amazon.com.
