This is My Story (my short testimony in a poem) – 11/26/20

This is my story 

I once was poor and lost

In need of a purpose

To and fro was tossed 

I thought I had a relationship 

And that I was good to go

Thought I had the grace (or peace) of God

But I didn’t even know 

My life was full of vanity 

Of foolishness and fun 

My thoughts were far from eternity 

And the true meaning of the Son 

But then I began to see clearer 

Realize my faith was dead 

I didn’t store up heavenly treasures

Despite all that I said 

So soon I made a drastic change

Began to seek and read and pray 

Like I should have all along 

Jesus showed me the way 

Now I long for my forever home 

One day I’ll be there soon

That is, if I continue 

On the path despite all gloom
