Dear friends,
Here’s a devotional poem for today. It’s based on what God’s Word says in 1 John 3:3:
BC / AD
BC —
Before Christ,
we reckon backward.
Just as the years
count down to one,
the measure of our life
gets smaller and smaller
until at last life comes to naught.
AD —
but, anno Domini,
in the year of the Lord,
what need have we for BC ways?
We and the calendar repent;
the years get fuller and fuller,
adding and adding more,
until at last life overflows in Him.
