THE WITNESSES

Posted byRobert M. HinnenPosted inUncategorized

While one denied Him three times, fearing the possible cost

The two Marys watched Him suffer and die upon The Cross

While most fled doubting the decision He had made

The two Marys viewed the place His body was laid

While many hid in darkness in the upper room

The two Marys came and found the empty tomb

While all of His disciples would eventually realize God’s provision

The love displayed by these two witnesses was without condition

And he said to them, “Do not be alarmed. You seek Jesus of Nazareth, who was crucified.
He has risen…”
Mark 16:6 (ESV)

I have been writing poetry since I was a teenager, but it wasn’t until a few of years ago that my writing became more spiritual and at the same time more prolific. As I shared my poetry with my wife, Hannah, and a few good friends, they encouraged me to place the poems in book form. My first book endeavor was “Because Of Him”, published in 2017. After hearing Sammy Murimi, the director of Share International Inc., speak at our church, I decided that the proceeds from that book would be donated to Share. In 2018, Hannah and I were privileged to go to Turkanaland in Kenya on a mission trip with Share. It was a life-changing experience for us both. Some of the inspiration from that trip is expressed in my second book, “His Cup Pours Out”. I include scripture verses with my poems because most of the poems I have written were inspired by reading God’s Word. I hope that as you visit this blog, you will meditate on the scripture verses and write down your prayers and thoughts for the week. My goal for this project has always been that God would be glorified! Robert M Hinnen
