“MIGHTY IN OUR MIDST”

“The Lord your God is in your midst, a mighty one who will save; he will rejoice over you with gladness; he will quiet you by his love; he will exult over you with loud singing.” Zephaniah 3:17 ESV

O’ Mighty God, Creator of all things

How we long to be in Your presence

Let the whole world Your praises sing

You freely gift us Your righteousness!

Your love sent Your only Son to save

The unworthy decaying in dire darkness

You redeem us by Your Light and faith

Ever rejoicing over us with gladness!

We find needed rest in Your calm embrace

Mercifully all our cares and burdens bearing

We abound in Your surpassing grace

You exalt over us with loud singing!

Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Amen!

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
