CROWNS

What crowns have they awarded to my Lord
And who was it determined such awards?
Firstly the soldiers plaited a crown of thorns
To grace His head while He endured the cross;
Though innocent of hate they moved in scorn
Coarsely disposed merely to jeer and mock.
Threat nor complaint came from the Lord of all
Though by His word their breath could be recalled.
But finally another crown adorns
The One who brought to God more than He lost.
God has ensured He has His just reward ‑
Glory and honour bestowed on Him by God.

  3. Thank you, ladies.

    And Terry you will have one (at least), "Henceforth the crown of righteousness is laid up for me, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will render to me in that day; but not only to me, but also to all who love his appearing". Won't you?

  4. yes!
    oh this is just great because i do love the promise of his coming again..thank you so much!
    i will have to do a little more studying on the crowns!
    i am going to email you later to tell you how much good i received from reading your blog last night.
    i really do believe that the holy spirit is giving the christians the same message at the same time no matter where they are in the world because this morning the crowning of the lord and the washing of the feet was talked about a lot and the salvation of the thief on the cross.....my husband and i have to leave now for the gospel meeting.....terry
