Banquet Hall

I am all too painfully aware,
Of what Jesus has saved me from,
And altogether stand amazed,
At His glorious kingdom to come,

For on the cross Christ took away,
My sin- the entire sum,
And now welcomes me into His banquet hall,
When I only expected a crumb.

MT 2022

Mat 15:27  And she said, “Yes, Lord, yet even the little dogs eat the crumbs which fall from their masters’ table.” 
Mat 15:28  Then Jesus answered and said to her, “O woman, great is your faith! Let it be to you as you desire.” And her daughter was healed from that very hour.

Appearance

Some think the party is here and now,
We should live to the fullest down here,
While I think God gave us this world to enjoy,
Truest joy comes when Christ shall appear.

MT 2021

Col 3:1  If then you were raised with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ is, sitting at the right hand of God.

Col 3:4  When Christ who is our life appears, then you also will appear with Him in glory. 

Trinity Love

The High and Lofty,
Has set apart,
The humble in spirit,
And the contrite in heart,
And gives eternal salvation,
To those who bend their knee,
To the God of heaven,
Three in One, One in Three.

MT- 2020

NKJV Isa 57:15 

For thus says the High and Lofty One Who inhabits eternity, whose name is Holy: “I dwell in the high and holy place, With him who has a contrite and humble spirit, To revive the spirit of the humble, And to revive the heart of the contrite ones. 

Sufficient

Your grace is sufficient,
Is ever enough,
When the path is dark,
And the road gets rough,
Your grace is a beacon,
Of radiant light,
In our gloomiest hour
And our darkest night.

MT 2019

John 1:16  And of His fullness we have all received, and grace for grace. 

Entwined

Divinity and humanity,
Beautifully entwined,
God and Man,
Gracious and kind,
Descends from glory,
Lost souls to find,
With grace and by love,
Broken hearts He will bind.

MT 2019

Luke 19:10 NKJV
[10] for the Son of Man has come to seek and to save that which was lost.”

Faithful Keeper

The valley of the shadow of death
Is wide and dark and deep,
And the climb up the mountain of righteousness,
Is narrow, winding and steep,

But the Good Shepherd leads in both places,
For He loves and cares for His sheep,
And no matter what terrain or trials we face,
His lambs He will faithfully keep.

MT  2018

So I Smiled- A Poem for Dave

Jesus walked with me up a dark mountain,
Higher and higher he led,
“Walk by faith and not by sight,”
“For my grace is sufficient,” He said,

“Fear not, My dear child, it is I,”
“Who built this mountain so tall,”
“And I created both darkness and light,”
“And will teach you to soar and not fall,”

So I smiled in the face of the dark abyss,
As the Prince of Peace filled up my heart,
And I realized His presence was the greatest gift,
That my Father could ever impart.

Mark Tinjum   –   2017

Eph 3:19  to know the love of Christ which passes knowledge; that you may be filled with all the fullness of God.
