My Friend Named, Jesus

As I said I have started writing some Christian poetry so I hope you enjoy. If you don't like reading religious stuff don't read.

I have a friend named, Jesus,

Who walks the day with me.

He gave to me a precious gift,

One that completely set me free.

Whenever I need lifting up,

He’s there to lend a hand.

He’s my solid steady rock,

When all else is sinking sand.

He has made miracles happen,

This awesome friend of mine.

He’s made blind men see,

And turned water into wine.

I may not be able to see Him,

But, He’s here right by my side.
To light my path and way,

To be my spirit’s guide.

He’ll never turn His back on me,

Or go away and leave.

He’ll stay with me foreer,

If in Him I just believe.

He’ll never laugh behind my back,

Or say mean things to me.

He’ll wrap me in a loving hug,

And fill me up with glee.

But, He doesn’t have to be mine alone,

He wants your friendship too.

Just let Him in you broken heart,

And He’ll be a friend who’s always true.

Thank you so much! I've started writing many poems that are similar to this one and I love the reassurance that it's what I need to be doing at the moment. Thank you so much for your wonderful review!

Great tribute to something that CAN be eternal if chosen. I really loved the rhythm, rhyme, flow and found it was really universal for all ages and walks that have religious beliefs. Alot of great messages within this and I loved the fact you labelled this as an invitation by ways of asking others not to read if they don't wish to read this type of writing.

I thought you did a really beautiful job on it and it's a piece that's really worthy of being framed on a wall or in a book of poetry.. Loved what I read it is not pushy.. believing can make a person feel more free when you look at the brighter side of it .. Awesome work!
