With Jesus Alone

With Jesus Alone

A Poem by Himaya Ka
"

There were stories but have never been told, but it’s okay for it’s not for us to behold. Like the struggles we have which nobody knows, for it’s better to leave it untold.

WITH JESUS ALONE

 

Numerous generations have passed

Each snooze of the sun and the moon

Every nap of the twinkling little stars

Several stories were saved in manuscripts

Some were engraved in stones and scrolls

But some were imprinted in the hearts

 

A story of darkness that turned into light

A story of misery that led humans to glory

Like the story of the robber at the cross

A simple plea of faith to be remembered

Changed his doomed destiny to bliss

There’s even a story of unsolicited forgiveness

 

Yes, He gave us what we needed

Not what we truly deserved

In the weakness of our faith

He didn’t withdraw himself

He showed and spoke to us instead

To help us in our doubts and unbelief

 

When we turned our back in guilt

For the broken promises we’ve made

He met us at the sea of second chances

To tell us that we can still fulfil it

We only need to forgive ourselves

And to rely on his mercy and his grace

 

There were stories but have never been told

Yet it’s okay for it’s not for us to behold

Like the struggles we have which nobody knows

For it’s better to leave it untold

If it has nothing to do with others

Then it must be kept with Jesus alone

John 20:27-31

27 Then saith he to Thomas, Reach hither thy finger, and behold my hands; and reach hither thy hand, and thrust it into my side: and be not faithless, but believing. 28 And Thomas answered and said unto him, My Lord and my God. 29 Jesus saith unto him, Thomas, because thou hast seen me, thou hast believed: blessed are they that have not seen, and yet have believed. 30 And many other signs truly did Jesus in the presence of his disciples, which are not written in this book:31 But these are written, that ye might believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God; and that believing ye might have life through his name.
