Here is a poem of mine that I wrote shortly after I gave my life to Christ. It is based on a Bible verse that has become one of my favorite ones.
"Therefore if anyone is in Christ he is a new creation, the old has gone, the new has come"
2 Corinthinns 5:17
Born Again
Beautiful butterfly, joyfully free -
No longer awkward or earthbound to be
The way it was changed tells what has happened to me.
The image of the butterfly born again and made new.
I accepted Jesus, now I am born again, too.
The old me is gone, my spirit is new
The change that took place I owe all to You.
It didn't take long, an instant or so
You are with me Lord Jesus, wherever I go.
The change was complete, now I am free,
Made in His image, a follower I'll be.
The story is not over, the work incomplete
I have to tell others, whoever I meet.
Accept the Lord Jesus, open your heart
Like the butterfly, you will have a new start.
