“No Righteousness of Our Own” KJV Bible Verse List:
This funny poem was written for an online friend of mine who I have known for a few years. We were having a short chat regarding my style of poetry, and how I sometimes like to use literary — or poetic — forms of words. Just joking, I warned her that if she didn’t watch out, I’d right a poem about her.
Well, she thought that I was just kidding. So, knowing that she has a habit of being a night owl, I composed this poem about her easily in five minutes.
Now, I don’t really know if she spends her nights watching late TV shows. More than likely, being a fellow Christian, she is probably reading her Bible, or doing some other more productive thing. I honestly don’t know for certain, but the secret remains with her. 🙂
I don’t want to cause her any public embarrassment, so her name will remain anonymous. She’s just the “Night Owl”. 🙂
“Brethren, I count not myself to have apprehended: but this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before, I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.” Philippians 3:13-14, KJV
“And it came to pass, when I, even I Daniel, had seen the vision, and sought for the meaning, then, behold, there stood before me as the appearance of a man. And I heard a man’s voice between the banks of Ulai, which called, and said, Gabriel, make this man to understand the vision. So he came near where I stood: and when he came, I was afraid, and fell upon my face: but he said unto me, Understand, O son of man: for at the time of the end shall be the vision. Now as he was speaking with me, I was in a deep sleep on my face toward the ground: but he touched me, and set me upright . . . And the vision of the evening and the morning which was told is true: wherefore shut thou up the vision; for it shall be for many days. AND I DANIEL FAINTED, AND WAS SICK CERTAIN DAYS; afterward I rose up, and did the king’s business; and I was astonished at the vision, but none understood it.” Daniel 8:15-18, 26-27, KJV
