This poem I wrote outside of my church. I was having a very rough week due to personal problems, however found enlightenment through a grandchild who hugged me and told me she loved me, a very old woman who smiled at me as she shook my hand in church, and my best friend and roommate who has been an inspiration to a lot of my poems.

I wrote the following poem which was my depiction of what may occur on mankind's final days upon earth. Although in the beginning it does not appear that God is prevalent - the later part does show where I believe he will play his greatest role.

I wrote this poem as I reflected upon my faith. I believe that instances like these do occur and that our Angels can be someone so unexpected. God Bless!

This poem shows how a someone struggled through many different things, and how she grew in God through each "round." After each round she realized what she should have done, and learned how to turn to God, instead of turning from God.

It shows the heart of a young girl, trying to figure out her life, and why these things are happening to her.

This is just a few words of encouragement to everyone, myself included, when skies seem grey and nothing goes right. Just think of the future as being bright ahead!

I think?

This poem takes a new look at the well- known story of John and where it's appropriate, includes humor to emphasize the point.

(Adapted from Matthew 3)

Everyone knows this well- loved story. I just wanted to have a bit of fun with and show the human frailty and humor that can exist in any story.

(Adapted from 1 Samuel 17)

I asked my sister- in- law what her favorite Bible story was and I'd turn it into a poem. I was horrified to discover that the story of Dorcas is the shortest story in the whole Bible. I've had a little fun with it.

(Adapted from Acts 9:36- 42)

A life of sadness, fear and loneliness was changed the day I discovered Him. Why did it take so long? I don't know. What I do know is that His love changed my life, my outlook on life and my destiny. Nothing I can do can repay Him for His love. Nothing I do can separate me from His love. To Him, I will be forever grateful.


'By the works of the Law no flesh will be justified in His sight; for through the Law comes the knowledge of sin. But now apart from the Law the righteousness of God has been manifested, being witnessed by the Law and the Prophets, even the righteousness of God through faith in Jesus Christ for all those who believe.' Romans 3:20-22
