Sunday Post: Happy Easter, and an Easter Poem from #LouiseBelanger

Posted on by BonnieReadsAndWrites

I hope you are having a wonderful day as we Christians celebrate the Resurrection of Jesus Christ, who was both God in the Flesh and sent by God to die for our sins as the ultimate sacrifice.

I have a beautiful Easter poem for you by Louise Bélanger. She has permitted me to post it prior to publication. It will be part of her upcoming Christian Poetry book, Your Words, Your Hope.

If You Ask Me

Three were crucified

That day

Why Jesus in the middle?

Why not the other two

Together

Next to Jesus?

If you ask me

I tend to think

It’s symbolic

Was the one

Referred to as

The thief on the cross

On His left

Or His right?

If you ask me

The Bible doesn’t say

But I gather His right

As he was saved

Signs

Are all over the Bible

God speaks

Through signs

Jesus will separate

The people

He will place the sheep

On His right

And the goats

On His left

The sheep

Are the saved

The goats

Are not

Three were crucified

That day

Jesus in the middle

If you ask me

I tend to think

It’s symbolic

Of the future

I love to read and write book reviews in my free time. I review advance review copies of books on Netgalley for various publishers. I am also a reviewer for Historical Novels Review Magazine, the magazine of the Historical Novel Society. I review books from publishers of all size, large to small. I have a special place in my heart for indie authors. I will sometimes post a little writing that I might dabble in occasionally. I also am lucky enough to live in the Smoky Mountains, so I'll be sharing photos of the beauty around me from time to time.

  13. Thank you for sharing! I’m so thankful for Jesus and his Father’s sacrifice! We went over it today in church and it was moving. I pray to be a better person and emulate their love and qualities in my every day life. Have a lovely week!
