Save

We follow Christ...we will not turn back. And though often the road is hard and we face severe opposition...and yes...we shed tears, becoming discouraged and sometimes...sometimes feel like giving up...we cannot. For we were called to do 'His' work. Thus, we will stay the course! And with joy we will lift our banners while singing our songs with every written word! We are...God's poets

Should not we... as God's poet's thank Him...for the trials? For with them we gather phrases which offer an oasis turning frowns...into smiles After all... how can one sow a hope that they have never known... or encourage faith...that's never been sown? Reaching deep into hidden crevices... of dark and despairing lives we point to the light that will help many to press on...to strive Through the power of the pen ...we reveal His Inspirations but He wipes our tears and refreshes us...before we can share His messages for the nations What a called privilege... to be His instrument to be a His knees...waiting for His intent Through the valleys and mire... we once did willingly trod having no idea then...our experiences would one day...lift high Salvations Rod We're attacked mightily by the enemy... we are thrashed and thrown into rough seas yet...we stand strong with our proclamations dutifully planting...nurturing...His seeds The 'cliche; He's done for me...He'll do for you is often used...because it's true and it's real but due to it's simplicity and lack of knowledge most...ignore our peal Still...His words and imageries continue to flood our minds and we are caught up in the majestic beauty ...of His heavenly prose and rhymes We cannot be silent! ...and for your visits, Dear Jesus so timely and unique ...we thank You! For the gifting of the growth times when we've tarried...just learning at Your Blessed feet ...we thank You! Please...Precious Lord...hear our plea *...let Your* desires be! Father...use Your emplanting to honor and glorify...Thee For, this is not about...what we want** ...for we are Thine! No...not at all about...us *have Your* way...there is no...mine We...love You! We are... Your poets 2 Corn 1:3-4, 2 Corn 4:1 copyright; jmsBell/2009**

In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. My understanding might be wrong, but I guess if there wasn't for Him or for His Word we wouldn't be inspired poets using 'words'...??

from the glorious kingdom of God�s heart;
The hallows of everlasting life�

What a beautiful inspiration. We are in fact the Lord's instrument, and we should always give praise to our Lord for all that he has done in our lives. May God bless you every day of your life.

I sometimes wonder where my poems come from. Most of them come to me complete and all I have to do is type them. Now, because of your poem Joyce, I think I know from where most of them come from and am honored and blessed.

Your poem is wonderful and I thank you for the privilege of reading it and for the insight it gave me.

Blessings on Your Day,
Marcia

Joyce, this is a beautiful inspirational write. I have gained many insights and benefits from poetry such as yours. I especially like that second stanza. So true.

The writer of Ecclesiates was one
of Gods poets too - he had much to
say about the human condition and its
pitfalls and the futility of fleshly pursuits.
"The quiet words of the wise
are more to be heeded than the shouts
of a ruler of fools"
