For today's prompt (the first Two-for-Tuesday prompt of the month),
write a make sense poem and/or don't make sense poem.
You loved the world so much You gave your Son; for none could earn
Enough to pay sin's ransom; what can I give in return?
For whatever I think of in the name of love seems small
Compared to what You gave; sinless, You came and gave Your all
No matter how I ponder it I cannot comprehend
Such height and depth and breadth of love all sinners to defend
The cross you bore, the bloody gore to redeem human race
Defies all explanation except one; amazing grace
...and all that You ask in return, redemption to receive
Is faith to take what none can earn; to repent and believe
Thus, surely it makes sense, in the light of eternity
That I should trust love so immense, that You would die for me

John 3:16-17
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son,
that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world;
but that the world through him might be saved.
