Barbara’s Poetry From The Heart Corner
A lost child perceives God’s light
He rewards absolute delight.
There’s “no” fear knowing Him
He grants faith, hope, and love again.
He doesn’t scold or bring angst to people’s hearts
His spirit lives to never depart.
We’re innocent children born into sin
His spirit nudges souls as we’re spread thin.
We’re taught to walk and talk growing in Him
His word teaches us to be a good friend.
We fail and plunge into traps in our lives
He dusts us off, allows us to keep up the fight.
We’re a stream running off course
need our senses to move forth.
Never fear God’s gentle hand or His light
He’ll not bring fear and disillusion into a life.
God nurtures and feeds our souls
He watches us sow seeds to make us whole.
Don’t listen to cynic’s trying to put apprehension in our minds
God’s love captures our spirit and feeds the blind.
God’s a gentle lamb and knows every heart
He knew us when a thought in the dark.
Take His hand and don’t be afraid to walk with Him
He’ll be there from beginning until the end.
He’s the master of all…the omnipotent one
never degrades or makes us feel shunned.
He doesn’t reprimand or turn us away from Him
His intention is to be there as a dear friend.
