Christ was born as Hope for all; when born a tiny baby in a stall, <br />He was born as the Savior of men, in the tiny town of Bethlehem. <br />He was born in a quiet place, as The King of God’s chosen race. <br />He was God’s Gift to all men, for it was by God that He was sent. <br /> <br />As a young boy not much is said, about Christ’s life in Nazareth. <br />One event that we are told, He was at the Temple at 12 years old. <br />One thing that Christ told us, He was about His Father’s business. <br />The Word is silent until we see, The Lord Jesus begin His Ministry. <br /> <br />Jesus lived His life for all to see, what God expects of you and me. <br />He had but one job to fulfill, and that was to do His Father’s will. <br />Peter stated, He was The Christ, but He came to offer men His life. <br />Christ lived for us a sinless life, in a dark world of sinful strife. <br /> <br />The end of His life is why he came, to die for us a death of shame. <br />On the cross, a sinless Lamb died a wicked death, for sinful man. <br />But unlike a lamb or common man, our Lord and Savior rose again. <br />Over sin and death He had victory, so that man could live Eternally. <br /> <br />The Son of God came to earth, to offer fallen man a second birth, <br />The Immortal God came to give, all mortal men a new life to live. <br />Believe the reason why He came, and you will never be the same. <br />So Friend, become Born Again, so when you die you will live again. <br /> <br />(Copyright ©12/2004)<br /><br />Bob Gotti<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/christ-was-born-for-us/
