CONSIDER CHRIST JESUS

Christ Jesus was born to fulfil God’s profound will;

High expectations! How could His heart be so still?

Huge tasks were given that would wear a person down;

Yet, Jesus performed every task and never wore a frown!

 

Let us indeed consider Christ Jesus and fathom how He fared;

Nothing seemed to faze Him, and in all circumstances He was glad!

What was His secret, that He could do all that had been entrusted?

He was King, Priest, Prophet; He fulfilled all; beyond the expected!

 

Jesus did not take lightly that He was called the Beloved Son of God;

Deep in His heart, He determined that He would be faithful to the LORD.

No matter how hard life may be, His soul was focused on pleasing Him;

He would not fail His Father, even at death, when His eyes grew dim!

 

Faithfulness was the lesson He determined He would practise from the heart;

The day may be long, and the work demanding, but His eyes were on God’s chart;

The Word of God had charted His life and His ministry, and He would not fail;

His faith was strong, His Spirit was focused, and by God’s grace He would prevail!
