These Are My JOTtings, Part #2

Shakespearean Sonnet: "The Gift of God"

Salvation comes to spirits, who believe
by Power from Eternity's Great Grace.
The pow'r of Sin can only He relieve,
Who smiles on us with His Blest, Loving Face.

But gone the days of giving sin a pass
for Christ did suffer on the cross anon.
He gives no wink to be just daily mass,
but changes us to make each sin begone.

Redemption's life must focus on the Lord,
those tentacles of Sin be wrenched a-loose
for as we dine upon delicious Word
His Righteousness the more we'll ever choose.

At end of days He merry will applaud
the ones, who left their lives to live with God.
