Raymond A. Foss Poems

Back to Poems Page

The little things that we give up
things we add to our days
denying ourselves of chocolate, TV,
spending more time in the word, in prayer

Each a reminder, to be purposeful,
thinking of Christ going to the cross
choosing to sacrifice all for me
that I may live again

Taking on my sin, my stain
washing me clean with his blood
something to awesome, so hard to understand
knowing I do not deserve such grace

Lenten season upon us
hoping to draw closer to him
in the little things that I give up
in the things I do in his name
