You were created in Christ and are His masterpiece.
He loves you like no other; with a love that won’t cease.
When bogged down in the despair of tribulation and trial
Seek His face.
Run to His arms.
Rest a while
Lean on His promises.
He has been with you all along.
In battle and testing, may your faith remain strong.
Cry out to Jesus!
He hears you when you pray.
He is near to the brokenhearted, both night and day.
He attends to you when you are strong and when weak.
In return, all He asks is for Him, your heart and soul to seek.
Through Him, you have become a creation that is new.
Remember His love.
He will never leave nor forsake you.
In this life, you will reap the harvest of what you sow.
My you bear much fruit as you mature and grow.
Though the storms around rage, do not be afraid.
You are part of a greater plan, the one God laid.
For battle He clothed you with His helmet, shield and sword
Praise Him…
Abba,
Yahweh,
Elohim,
Jesus… My Lord!

Becky, dear, this is so very beautiful and heartfelt! Thank you!
Dear Becky….no truer sweeter words have I read on a Red Tent Post. I am printing this out and putting it on a wall. You write poetry that is so easy and true and that is not easy to do. Thank you. What a lovely way to begin my day. Bless you in your studies. What a true and deep foundation you have to pursue such a degree.
I held this as a prayer today. Thank you, Becky.
Thank you for sharing your beautiful heart, Becky. I read your first two lines – “You were created in Christ and are His masterpiece. He loves you like no other; with a love that won’t cease.”, and I lingered there in His presence feeling so treasured and loved, before moving on to the rest of your words and the beautiful truths you have shared. Thank you for blessing me today! Looking forward to hearing more from you and so excited for you in your studies. Much love and many blessings to you!
My heart is smiling as I read these words today. Keep writing, Friend!
Beautifully written and so true and yet so oft forgotten. Women in our society today lose sight of their value in God’s eyes as they are bombarded daily with the ideals of our culture. Thank you for this lovely poem.
