Freed Indeed - Gary Alan Rothhaar
Part 1
Preface
This publication is divided into two parts. The first part is a collection of longer, and more meaningful poems. The second part is composed of a collection of short, light hearted, and humorous poems written for friends who were retiring. Each poem in either part will be preceded by a brief explanation of the poem to follow. Please take a moment to read these brief explanations so as to better understand the story line of each poem.
WHERE TO BEGIN?
Freed Indeed is the poem I have chosen to list first in this publication, because it reflects my basic testimony; before and after I accepted Jesus Christ as my personal Savior. When my soul was hopelessly lost, He sought me, and saved me. He forgave me, and gave me the peace, joy, and assurance of eternal life. I shall be forever grateful to Jesus.
The poem, Freed Indeed
is now etched permanently on the back of my tombstone, so I can give glory to God for my salvation even after my passing.
I was 32 years old when I asked Jesus to forgive my sins, to come into my heart, and be the Lord of my life. I asked Him to help me understand the truth of His word, and the spirit of his love. It was the best decision I have ever made.
The years prior to my conversion were filled with doubt and confusion. I had no solid theological foundation, and my life seemed to be without rhyme or reason.
But Jesus said, "be born again, my blood can wash away your sin, and make you see the truth that frees, and sets your soul and mind at ease
John 8:36 Jesus said, If the Son shall make you free, you shall be free indeed.
The words of this poem are now engraved on the back of my tombstone, so I can give glory to my Lord and Savior even after my passing.
