Good Cause

Jesus is good not for what He does, He does good things because He is a good God. That’s the difference.

Good cause

It was a good cause

Or was it because

Of His nature

God is too good to be described with mere labels

Or adjectives

He was more than an advocate

He didn’t fight for justice

He is Justice

Jesus is the gauge between righteousness and corruption

He makes something out of the nothing we call our lives

He reaches for us even when we try to hide

But not for a good cause

Not for the applause…of men

It was because of our sin

Sin that rewards us with death in the end

Unless we believe and repent

Or repent and believe

No longer bound to being deceived

Forever rejoicing that Hell no longer has a grip over me

Finally declaring, I’m free!

Thank You God, I’m free!

I hope you enjoyed this short poem and was encouraged to know that you aren’t a charity case. That God’s Love for you isn’t dictated on Him just doing good things for you but it’s the very essence of Who He is. He is simply the epitome of Good and for this we are graciously able to be reconciled back to our Father through faith in Jesus if we choose to repent and believe. Feel free to share this blog post as encouragement that you can use for yourself or others.
