Kenny Newell works at O'Malia's in Carmel. I stopped off there last night around 6:00 on my way home from work. A major storm had just blown through. Kenny bagged my groceries for me and He and I were walking out to my car and he told me that he is a poet. Then he asked me if I was a Christian. I said yes and with a big smile he recited a poem that he had written 15 years ago. I wrote the poem down and asked him if I could put it on my blog. With an even bigger smile he said yes. Here is his poem. I think it is beautiful. Please leave comments if you would like. I told Kenny I would print this out and drop it off for him at his work. And he did ask that we all pray for him to be inspired to write more poems. So, here you go.
JESUS IS LORD
By Kenny Newell
JESUS IS LORD, THE RISEN CHRIST
WHO FOR OUR SAKE WAS SACRIFICED
HE ENDURED DEATH SO THAT WE WOULD LIVE WITH HIM FOR ETERNITY
JESUS OUR LORD, DIED ON A CROSS
GREAT WAS HIS PAIN AND DEEP HIS LOSS
HEAVEN IS NOW WHERE OUR LORD REIGNS
FREED FROM THE CROSS HE FEELS NO PAIN
HEAVEN WILL TOO BE OUR REWARD
THANKS BE TO GOD
JESUS IS LORD

Very nice poem. Isn't it incredible how God puts people like that in our path in life? There are ministering people all around us if we would only look and listen. Thanks for sharing that Kelly
