The Joy of the Heart: A Collection of Poems of Encouragement

By James P. Robson

The Joy of the Heart

The purpose of the heart of man is to both sustain life and exude love. God’s gift to mankind is his heart and was granted to give and receive life’s joy with an eternal stream of extraordinary love.

I believe that all love is extraordinary when you consider the alternatives. For love to be truly extraordinary, it must enter the realm of pure love, where you have learned the self-discipline of surrendering your life completely to God, as Jesus Christ demonstrated at the cross. Obedience to God’s Word results in a life where love for others is continuously purified.

It is my prayer and hope that the ideas and words in this book of poetry will encourage the reader to expand their understanding by building a strong desire to seek and to claim Jesus Christ as their personal Savior and to spread the truth to others in their sphere of influence.

With Christ’s encouragement,
James P. Robson
