Valley of Beracah

You

can search

the whole world over

in your quest for inner peace;

You can visit every church in town

looking for sweet release.

You can call on every man of power

leading every noble cause;

And follow every beckoning voice,

pursuing without pause.

The One you seek has thorn-pierced brow;

His hands and feet bear scars.

He lives inside each blood-bought man

and reigns o'er all the stars!

A man of splendor and of might,

humility and pain;

The lowly, perfect

Lamb of God --

Forever

He will

reign!

And JESUS is His Name!

"For there is no other name

under heaven, given among men,

by which we must be saved."

(Acts 4:12)

Author Notes

I consider this my "signature poem," the one I most want to be read. Jesus is a paradox, and He is everything anyone needs.

Remember to copy and paste the youtube address to hear Chris Tomlin sing an amazing song, "How Great Is Our God" I loved it from the first time I heard the beginning lines!

Live in the country, but not as farmers. We moved here 22 years ago, when my husband wanted a place where he could hunt. I love the variety of God's creation...He wasn't content with 1 of anything! I am turned on by frogs, squirrels, tree-bark, tiny flowered weeds, warm weather, warm memories, family pictures, challenging sermons, God's written word, the kindness of my Bill, the love my grandkids express, etc., etc.

And I love when God lets me know that someone has been blessed

by what I have written!
