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!
