His Cross
Contributed by Loyd C. Taylor on Mar 14, 2023 (message contributor)
HIS CROSS
The idols of my heart were many,
I sunk low beneath the Law’s demand.
Satan’s chains held me a prisoner,
Burdened down by sin, I could not stand.
Then there before me stood the answer!
Guilt and slavery would soon be loss.
For my shackles broke and fell from me,
When I knelt humbly before His cross!
"The preaching of the cross is to them that perish, foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God." 1 Corinthians 1:18
