POEM STARTER

If I count the ways I love you...

Write a story or poem that could have this as its title.

Eternal Love

I love you. The love you have for me is enduring and forever.


I have failed you day after day, but regardless of that you love me.


Your love for me never changes


The love you have towards me, nothing and nobody can separate


Neither death nor life, nor angels nor rulers


You are love itself


Your love is priceless


Your love is abounding


Your love is better than life


You have demonstrated your love for us


Because of your love we are not consumed



You are steadfast and sovereign


You are gracious and forgiving


You have saved us


You are faithful and good


You are infinite and wise


You are omnipresent, omnipotent and omniscient, holding all of creation in your hands


You determined the number of stars and know them all by name


You created us in your image and formed us


You are just and merciful


You are holy and perfect




You are a jealous God who desires our whole heart


You are gracious and pure


You are patient and slow to anger


You know what’s best for us


You are my Father


Three in one, Father, Son and Holy Spirit


Your wrath burns against sin and you do not leave the guilty unpunished,


Yet you sent your son Jesus Christ to die on the cross for our sins and bear our punishment


Jesus took the weight of the cup of wrath on Himself so that we who deserve judgment, might taste your mercy instead


Even though we don’t deserve it, you love us



By your mercy and Christ’s blood, the old has passed away and the new has come


I love you
