Inspirational Poem: Selfish

Selfish

I am selfish, I try not to be but I am.

I guess its part of my sin nature to be selfish.

I don't want to help others unless there's something in it for me.

All I can think about is myself.

All I care about is three people: me, myself, and I.

The world teaches us to be selfish;

Go for yours and do anything to get yours,

No matter whom you hurt even if it's yourself.

I am selfish; I only want to do what pleases me.

I am selfish; I can't stop writing about myself in this poem.

How can I stop being selfish?

Oh I know learn from the teachings of Christ, Who was selfless and not selfish.

He gave His life for us so that we may live forever with Him.

There is nothing that He won't do for us.

That's who I should be more like,

Like Christ so I can become selfless and stop being so selfish...

Christian Poem: "God Is..."

God Is...

God is...omniscient which means He is all-knowing

He knows what we will do before we do it.

God is...omnipresent

He is everywhere,

We can't hide from God.

God is...Omnipotent

He is all-powerful

There's no limit to His power.

God is...The Father, The Son, and The Holy Spirit

He is The Father of Heaven, earth, creation and

The unique Father of Christ.

He is The Son who died for our sins and rose

To prepare a place in heaven for all believers.

He is The Holy Spirit that dwells in the hearts of believers

Constantly molding us into the image of Christ.

God is...magnificent, wonderful, King of Kings, Lord of Lords.

God is...love.

He has a love that outweighs our faults,

A redeeming love that forgive us of our sins.

We are more valuable than money or gems.

We are priceless to Him.

There are not enough words to describe God's awesome love, power, and

Glory

In short, God is...end of story.

Poem: "The Bread of Life"

The Bread of Life

 

Who is this Bread of Life?

Jesus Christ is this Bread of Life.

A person shall never thirst or hunger by believing in this Bread of Life,

As Jesus once said in John 6:35.

This Bread of Life can do more than just get a person by in this life.

This Bread of Life can give us eternal life.

This Bread of Life can nourish us,

Strengthen us and allow us to grow and flourish,

This Bread of Life will never stale, mold, or perish.

This Bread of Life can save our souls,

This Bread of Life is more than enough for everyone

So don't worry about receiving crumbs,

So may I ask who wants some?

Some of this Bread of Life that can give us eternal life.

So who is The Bread of Life?

Jesus Christ is The Bread of Life.

Book Review from Grady Harp Amazon Top 100 Reviewer

Here's a review of Cordell's Poems of Spiritual Inspiration:

By: Grady Harp Amazon Top 100 Reviewer

 

Format: Kindle Edition

"North Carolina author Mack `Cordell' Moore is a man who has struggled with depression, is a right wing fundamentalist evangelical Christian who has strong beliefs based on his religion. His poems offer here share these thoughts on a number of topics, virginity before marriage, gay relationships, and living a sin-free life. He states in his Introduction, `This book is dedicated to my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. The purpose of this small book of poems is to introduce the world to Jesus Christ. Whether a person believes in Him or not, I just want people to know why He loves us so much. I want people to learn more about Jesus as well as bring the love of God to people everywhere. My desire with this book is to strengthen or renew peoples' faith in God. I hope people will get encouraged and inspired by these poems. May God bless everyone who read these poems!"

Poem: Just Listen !!!

Just Listen!!!

Just listen is all I ask

Just listen is one little task.

I'm not a loud talker so please be quiet

Just listen to me please a moment of silence.

So I can share with you my thoughts and desires,

About life and Christ who's the Messiah.

About Christ who died on the cross

To save us sinners who are also lost.

To redeem us by shedding His blood

He did it out of love.

He descended from up above

To offer us peace and love like a dove.

And He rose three days later

To prepare a place in heaven for us which is much greater.

So I hope while we are on earth

That we realize that to Christ we are priceless which is our worth.

So please just do one little task,

Just listen to me is all I ask.

Inspirational Poem: Feeling Good About Yourself (Self-Esteem)

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder,
That beholder is God.
God made all of us (mankind) beautiful
We all come in different shapes, sizes, and colors.
The multiple skin tones of people are beautiful.

From the lovely milky skin to the lovely dark chocolate
And the beautiful skin tones in between.
Why should we compare ourselves to others?
When God gave us distinct looks that makes us different.
Please people; stop looking at worldly magazines

With all those thin people in them.
That's just one view of beauty.
Please people; stop listening to vain people like me

Giving you a one-way view of what's beautiful
We are not all meant to be the same size
Some of us are meant to be thinner than others
Some of us are meant to be bigger than others

This doesn't make us ugly
It means that we are all lovely
Please people, avoid plastic surgery

If you don't need it for medical reasons, don't do it
I have not seen a person, who has had it,

That has improved their looks.
They were actually more beautiful before the surgery
I know why people do this though
Because they are unhappy

And have low self-esteem.
I know a person who can help
Jesus Christ is this person.
Jesus can be your sunshine after the rain
He can bring you joy through all the pain.

He can help you feel good about yourself
It seems He can give you high self-esteem
So I ask you to try Jesus Christ,
The best option to bring happiness to your life.

This poem is from my book "Cordell's Poems of Spiritual Inspiration". It is available in print online at Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and Books-A-Million. It's available in ebook form on most ereaders such as Kindle, Sony, Kobo, and Nook.
