“MY SPIRIT REJOICES”

“I, I am the Lord, and besides me there is no savior.” Isaiah 43:11 ESV

My spirit rejoices in God our Savior!*

The risen Son of man is our hope forever

When his love appeared, he saved us

By his mercy, grace and righteousness

To all believers he shows steadfast love

Promising citizenship in heaven above

So we await the soon return of Christ Jesus

God’s only Son, our Redeemer who rescued us

He is exalted at the right hand of God the Father

Giving repentance and forgiving our sins forever

We see and testify to God’s gift of the Living Word

Our Lord, Christ Jesus, to be the Savior of the world!

My spirit rejoices!

*Luke 1:47

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
