KNOW HIM

Behold nature’s marvelous majesty

Cursed by sin’s callous calamity

The thief desires only to destroy

Stealthily stealing all hope and joy

Tribulations producing only tears

Is there anyone who truly cares

Christ Jesus became man to rescue us

Redeemed by His love and righteousness

On Calvary He suffered and died for our sins

Resurrected that we may know Him

Forgiven we grow stronger in our faith

Rejoicing ever in His power and grace!

“that I may know him and the power of his resurrection, and may share his sufferings, becoming like him in his death,”

Philippians 3:10 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
