The Heart of the Warlord
Divinely designed for you
Mystical and miraculous
Immaculate and satin white
Fashioned by the creator's hands
With you in mind
Your rendevous with destiny
Complete in total love
Merged with paradise
With devotion entwined
We alter our landscapes
By settled will of our God
Sacred blessings dispensed
Dispelling the dark
Sweet Golden Angel Chosen
To be Grail of her Knight
Travelling forever
The mysterious meridians
The Warlord and Pagan Girl
Besotted true vine
Bewitched and spellbound
And locked into time
Oneness so glorious
Sequin of the supreme
Mirror images blossoming
With heavenly intent
Warriors of the light
Consecrated to the Cross
Charged and obligated
To fulfil the Holy Will
Embedded with compassion
Seeking nothing in return
Washed and purified
In the blood of the Lamb

WOOOOOOW! Simply STUNNING!! I'll go with both Sandra and Chanti; I can barely get my head round this, Peter, and need to immerse myself in it for a bit...that final stanza...NO!! All of them! Just completely drop-dead gorgeous. WISH I WROTE IT!! This is possibly an unwritten poem of mine that I could never get down on paper - and never in such an authoritative or compelling and polished way. This is both blood-washed pure and sacrosanct, but at the same time mystically engaged. My Christian journey for about a year now, embarked upon through my writing, is to bring these two elements into a holistic balance so that the one works through and permeates the other - as you have so eloquently portrayed here. I am completely at your feet with this one, Peter... Thank you seems wholely inadequate!! Kate xx
I know I have said it before......you are such a romantic and loving writer, it shows thru your words......you style is uniquely you, I am sure the words show the man :)

A guide and challenge to Christians who want to live a life of true discipleship. It explains why worship is fundamental and how a life of true worship transforms one to Christ-likeness.
The world calls us to improve and promote ourselves. Is this
