CHRISTIAN POEMS

All of my Christian poems are categorised separately here, as I encourage teachers, children and beginners to use my site as an educational site and am keen not to force my own personal beliefs on anyone. Having said that, keeping my God and Saviour and the way He makes me feel to myself feels very much like owning a precious gem and not letting anyone see it, touch it or share it! Therefore, I have categorised my Christian and inspirational poetry separately from the educational poems, so that anyone who chooses to read it may do so, and I trust that God will speak to anyone who chooses to listen.
As the bible says in Luke 11 verse 9 “Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you.”

Easter: Just for me?

I have often heard the following questions.  In fact I have asked them myself………. What has Easter got to do with me? Why is it relevant? Why did Jesus have to die anyway? This poem is the answer to my own questioning.  I hope that it makes Easter more relevant to you too.
