I had to write a sonnet for my Intro to Poetry class and I thought... "what better way to express my love for God in every way possible than to incorporate Him into my homework?"
So I named the poem John Three Sixteen, because that is the core of it.
"For God so loved the world that He gave His only Son, so that everyone who believes in Him will not perish but have eternal life." - John 3:16
John Three Sixteen
Oh Crap. She sinned again. She ran out of
Pureness, she wasted that one chance of faith.
Forget about heaven, the God above.
Hell has opened up; she's through. Yet the wraith
Of that dark past was falsehood. Age-old laws
Have claimed: For God so loved the world; He gave
His all for man. She can bereave her flaws
There is deliverance for all who crave
It is as he wanted. She was pardoned, healed,
So loved, saved, clean. The benefits reaped when
Her all was traded; Yahweh's story sealed
Hers alone. Heaven is, was, and has been.
For as long as her faith stays active; she
Will have a home, a place of love from He.
