Fresh Studies Poem by Curtis Johnson

Fresh Studies
By Curtis Johnson

Sometimes, what you find in a study can only be expressed in the way that you walk it out
Occasionally, one can attempt to explain in words what his recent studies have reveal
Many things that we have already learned
are no longer fresh, and provides little life
This then is my feeble attempt at communicating the freshness that I am finding about Jesus Christ

He is more gracious than I ever realized
More forgiving than I ever understood
More merciful than anyone can imagine

He doesn’t mind washing the feet of his followers
He delights in serving his disciples; even fixing their breakfast
Sometimes he answers before we even ask the question

He weeps with the weepers, and reveals himself to the seekers
He gets amazed with our faith, and races to our rescue
He sleeps in storms, and awakes when we call him
He loves to bring peace and security to me

He quiets the storm at sea, and commands everything to be still in me
He calls men and women to forsake all and follow him
Who does this! ! ! ?
