"But God!" A Poem for Today!

It seemed even if people tried to care for me,

No one could help or set me free.

Encouragement was offered for problems each day,

People tried to uplift me when sickness came my way.

Nobody could, But God.

No one could redeem me from the slavery of sin,

No one could renew the right spirit within.

No one could heal my body or ease all my fears,

No one, But God.

I thank God for the day that He made me whole,

He has cleansed me and redeemed my soul.

Even when doctors had given up on me,

He took all my sickness, and now I am free.

No one else cared enough to do this for me,

No one But God.

If you are in sin and you feel you don’t have a prayer,

Just know where you are lacking: God is there.  

If you are sick in your body and don’t know what to do,

If you feel all the world has given up on you.

Everyone But God.

Just turn to Jesus, He’ll show you what to do,

Because greater is He that lives inside of you.

If God said it, that is just what He will do,

He’s more than the whole world against you.

Stay in His word and He’ll lead you each day,

Then with power and boldness you can stand and say.

Now I live my life to please no one, But God!

But God, who is rich in mercy, because of His great love with which He loved us, even when we were dead in trespasses, made us alive together with Christ (by grace you have been saved), and raised us up together, and made us sit together in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus. 

Ephesians 2:4-6
