Life With A Purpose

Hi, 

My name is Cinda and I have been writing inspirational poetry since 1986 after becoming a Christian in 1983… It was a way to express myself with pen and paper because I could not express how I felt with verbal words… It began a healing process for me, the more I wrote, the more God helped me to express the love in which Jesus has for each of us in everyday life.

I pray you enjoy the poems and that they will speak to you in such a way that will help you through your most difficult times and when you are enjoying life too.

“Yes, I Am Blessed”

As I look back I see from where I have come.
My sins were as scarlet, I felt empty and undone…
Then I looked up to my only hope.
I knew this was the only way I would be able to cope.

My life was desolate and there was no meaning.
It took God’s Love to free me.
My prayer was, Dear Lord, come what may,
Please show me the way.

Along with the prayers were many tears.
And through the years…
There had been many unanswered questions and many fears to face.
Then I found forgiveness through Christ under God’s Grace.

God’s Love comes through our Savior.
With His unmerited favor.
God Himself came in the flesh to present to us His ideal solution,
By giving us His Son for our Salvation.

Only by God’s Mercy, this is the secret I have found in life.
During the times of tribulation and strife,
It’s to trust and obey,
Even when you feel afraid.

Through perseverance,
God will make the way and give you clearance.
But sometimes misunderstood,
Is just believing if only I could.

It’s making a commitment to obey
Even when you still feel afraid.
Yes, I am blessed,
But not without trials and tests.

Will the decision be for yourself, for others or His sake?
That is a choice we all have to make.
When we decide to come to Him and confess.
Yes, you too will be blessed
.

He took our sin for you and me,
So we could all be free.
Confess your sins to Him.
This is where it all begins…

” If we confess our sins He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.” 1 John 1:9 KJV
” For God so loved the world that He gave His Only Begotten Son that whosoever believes in Him shall not perish but have Everlasting Life.” John 3:16 KJV (Salvation)
