This came to me, reflecting on the message my Pastor gave this morning - reach out, be a blessing. :)

... may not have much, Lord,
but compared to others,
I am rich.
All I have is Yours.
All I am is Yours. Take
me, use me
as You would direct.
Let me be an answer
to a prayer.
Let me be a friend
to those who are lonely,
feeling sad.
Let me meet needs as
You certainly meet mine
every day.
I give you glory,
the honor and the praise
You deserve.
Thank You, Lord Jesus.
Beautiful, Karla. You have certainly been inspired and filled to full measure. Of course you are a blessing... a very, very rich one at that. And when you have received so mightily from The Source, your supplies will never falter or diminish and you will ALWAYS have more to give. In drinking you have received, and in giving you will be filled. Bless you for these sacred and inspirational thoughts. Kate xx
This is such a beautiful testament to all that you believe in...as well as being a beautiful prayer to live by.
Look at how many lives you have blessed with this poem alone. :~)
Wonderful to see you going to church again, Karla; and what a shining testiment to today's sermon! Very beautiful write with an empowering message; we should all reach out in Christ-like love and help those who are hurting or needy! BRAVA!
(((HUGS))) and much love, your twin sister, Karen Lynn. :D
Beautiful! This is one I'd like to put on my refrigerator and read everyday, for I've learned that when I think of the well-being of others through prayer or otherwise, I am often blessed. Great job, Karla.
Beautiful, wonderful, Karla! My very favorite line is "Let me be an answer to a prayer." What a blessed desire! And I'm sure you have been, many times over.
It's a KEEPER!
Love, Coal-cracker hugs, and thanks for the inspiration,

a truly beautiful poem, Karla ... You are indeed a blessing ...
This book consists of a 150 pages of Christian poetry about the end of time and the Second coming of Jesus Christ not as a servant but as a King, the King of kings. To bring righteousness and peace to the earth and restore the government of God! Peac
