Poetically Endowed


I write poetry to express the feelings of my heart,
when I am in the attitude of prayer. 
My faith grows when I'm praising Him. 
My heart enlarges as I write.

Writing poetry is my stress release valve.
The more I strive to live a Christ-like life,
the more I find spiritual safety during perilous times.
I can feel Him sending help as I write!

My talent of expression
 enables me to share with others my love for Him.
I write to communicate with the heavens.
My poetic prose is a gift from Him.

I find my life blessed as I share my thoughts on paper.
As I write of Him, I seek others of like mind,
what a beautiful friendship we have with the Lord,
guided by His spirit as we write!
