How different life would be without him next to me. As a child he would sit next to me in the grass making
telling me of things I never knew.
Though the crowns of clover eventually wither, His promises never do.
When I was but a teen he gave me his ring, his coat and a called me his own. HE gave me a his promise and marked me as his own forever.
Now that I am older he walks beside me speaking words of wisdom and love. Oh, How I love Jesus, because he first loved me.
