Bible Story Poems
From Saul To Paul
Saul was a Pharisee who hated Jesus;
He despised His followers, too.
So, he plotted, and planned, every chance that he had,
To destroy the disciples, he knew,
One day on the road to Damascus;
Where Saul learned His disciples had fled,
Saul saw a great light, and heard Jesus' voice,
He could have sworn, that Jesus was dead.
As Jesus was speaking with Saul;
Saul realized that he had been wrong,
And, that Jesus was the "Son Of God"
Reigning beside God, on His throne.
So, Saul begged Jesus' forgiveness;
For disbelieving that He was God's Son,
And,he asked Jesus how he could make up,
For all the wicked things he had done.
Now, Saul had been blinded by God's Holy light;
So, God forgave Saul, and restored his eyesight.
Then, He told Saul, what he wanted him to do,
To carry His gospel, to the Gentiles, and Jews
Then, God changed his name(from Saul to Paul);
And, he spread God's word from Rome's prison wall,
Paul was arrested but, still undeterred,
He wrote his letters to the churches, still spreading God's word.
2nd Chronicles, chap.7-verse 14:
If my people which are called by my name,
Shall humble themselves and pray,and seek
My face, and turn from their wicked ways,
Then, I will hear from Heaven, and will
Forgive their sins,and will heal their land.
May God bless you all.
