SavesA Poem by Kelley ContoI was on a Christian Retreat over the new years and the theme was Anchored. So over the week I was there I began to think and grow deeper in my faith. Then i began to write about it in this poem.
I feel like I am sinking on a boat.
and won't be able to float, because of being filled with so much sin, wishing I had a dolphin so I could hold on to the fin. Feeling like I am not good enough to be saved, because I am always living in a dark area caved. Every time I get my head above the water, I fall back under and then I begin to heat the thunder, and start to wonder what is next, I need to see some text. So I kept trying to go against the ocean waves, but the current was to strong and kept sweeping me into the dark caves. I was doing this over and over, but kept failing So I decided it was harder to go against the waves, then to ride with them. So I was tired of struggling and asked Jesus to help me out of the cave, because I couldn't beat the wave. I wanted to be saved. So now I am saved and life is much better than before. Jesus threw his anchor and it hooked me and it pulled me up from the darkness to the light. So now I can shine bright. I still fall at times but Jesus helps me and I get through it with him because I realized with Him all things are possible. I couldn't do it alone, so I surrendered and He came to rescue me and it has been great. Jesus picks you up out of the waves and saves. © 2015 Kelley Conto |
