Great God!

Well, I think that it's about time for an update...lol. :) I haven't been on forever. Sorry! I recently had a surgery and then school and the Holidays was hectic.
But, I'm posting now! I recently wrote another poem. This time it's different from all my other poems. I had a school project that I had to complete on a form of poetry called a sonnet. So, here is my sonnet in iambic pentameter (poetry word, I'm smarter than you think...) form.

Great God

The sounding of a great thunder I heard
Trembling and full of fear I became
For there was great majesty in His name
Yet it was me to whom He had referred

In His presence I could not say a word
At this site I could never be the same
It is true that “this Lion can’t be tame”
Still He is kind, for my heart He had stirred

This One that I speak of, His name is Lord
He was the Great King, yet became a man
To bear the sins of His people wholly

He shed His blood so we could be restored
This God was here before the world began
To glorify His name through the lowly

This Fathomless Love!

There is a song by Sovereign Grace Ministries that I enjoy called, This Fathomless Love. It's probably one of my favorite songs, although, that's hard to say with Sovereign Grace music. I recently made a video to this song. It's my 5th video that I have made, and I think it's my favorite. I will post the video and the lyrics to the song. The words are so beautiful!



This Fathomless Love

Lord, what moved Your heart to love lowly man
before any star could herald Your praise?
And why did You come, abasing Yourself,
veiled in a robe of frail human clay?
Why would You the pure give Your life fore the vile,
the innocent seeking the guilty to be reconciled?

I can't comprehend this fathomless love.
I'm gripped and amazed at what You have done.
Why would the adored become the despised
to bear all the furious wrath that was mine?
How awesome this mystery
of Your fathomless love for me.

Why would You adopt and take as Your own
those who had crushed Your one precious Son?
Why mercy and grace towards Your enemies?
Your name they have cursed and Your throne they have shunned.
Oh how could You choose to show kindness to these?
The ones who would mock You and hate You,
the ones just like me?

The Glory of the Cross

I finished up yet another video yesterday. It's different than the rest of my video's, but it's still very powerful! Enjoy and praise God for His love for us.




In His marvelous and beautiful love,

Shelter in the Storm

Well, I just finished up another video!! The song is called Shelter in the Storm by Sovereign Grace Ministries. Enjoy and praise God for His wonderous love and mercy!

My Sweet Sixteen

Hello all my readers! Today is my sweet sixteen! I just wanted to post a poem that I wrote for my birthday today.

My Sweet Sixteen

My life is a vapor soon ready to pass
My days are fleeting just like the withering grass
The Lord has given me another year to celebrate what He has done
Of how He’s given His wondrous grace when I deserved none
This day is very special, but yet just like everyday
God has been longsuffering and kind in every way
I can recall what He showed me to flee
I will always remember what love He has shown to me
That day He took me and showed me my sin
My filthiness and wretchedness He showed to me then
“There is none that does good” I read in God’s Word
But that was something I had not even heard
I thought I was good enough to please a God so holy
But I didn’t know He required every deed that I thought was so lowly
From every lie to every thought was seen before Him
There was nothing before His eyes that was even dim
I’ve broken every commandment and now I see my fate
I was headed to hell where my judgment awaits
But look, it’s the cross where my Savior was bruised
Jesus hung on a cross where He was accused
He was accused by God for my sins and unrighteous deeds
Yet He had not broken God’s Laws nor one of His creeds
He was perfect and holy in every way
But was crushed for my sins and my fine He did pay
The wrath of God that was due to no one but me
Was put on God’s Son for everyone to see
He cried, “It is finished” with His final breath
That cry was a testament to what can happen to me after death
He then rose from the grave victorious on the third day
Christ defeated death and hell and made the Only Way
Next He showed me what I must do to me saved
I must turn from my sins and trust solely in Him, from whom salvation was paved
So repent and trust Him is what I did do
I was then given a new heart and new desires too
Now I’m forgiven and can go to heaven because of what Jesus did
My filthy unrighteous deeds from before Him He rid
I now praise Him and thank Him for His beautiful love
That is why I celebrate another year given from above
Jesus is the only reason I celebrate another day
Oh, how I love Him for paying my penalty and making a way
A question I will leave to end this at last
Where will you spend eternity when your time on earth has passed?

In Christ,
~Kirsten~
