You are the child of a King
An heir to One, who owns all things
You're rich beyond what you could dream
A child of One who reigns supreme

He left a will that was for you
Directions in what you should do
His promise to you from your birth
That you're inheritor of the Earth

No matter what you might have now
Or monetaries you endow
Maybe you're rich, maybe you're poor
The Lord will give the world and more

We look upon the worldly things
And base our worth upon earnings
When all along our Father's King
We're rich because we're His offspring

I love this

Its a great reminder to remember that being an heir to His throne and being His children are the most important!

Very uplifting. I love how you speak Promise into your reader's heart here.... and I for one receive the Promise with open arms. "I am the King of kings kid!!!" (Amen) Thank you. It is so important that we not forget our identity. Again, very uplifting poetry and Welcome back.

Thank you all so much.
Bob, thank you!

I am only reposting
what is in the archives. I only lately have thrown together a few sentences in my head.
I can't say I've written anything in a long time. Just burned out on it all, and it's still not quite back.

I'm glad I've been able to come back in here
and get a bit of reading lately though.

Hi WhtDove, your choice of words for what you wanted to convey are extremely appropriate and fitting. Not to mention how nice you place them with each other. I Enjoyed your poem very much.

What a wonderful reminder, Becky, of something we should all remember. It's like the beautiful song "The Prayer" says :

".. Remember, we are all God's Children
Reaching out to touch You
Reaching to the sky"

I'm glad you posted this again. It's a good time to reflect upon this.

Oh, make me Thine forever
And should I fainting be
Lord, let me never ever
Outlive my love for Thee

Great job! Reminds me of a little Jewish story. I'll summarize it- two men are best friends their whole lives. As they become older, they make a pact that the first of them to die will come back and tell them what death is like. So, one dies and he comes back, as promised, to see his friend. All he says is, "What is most important on Earth, is of little importance in heaven. What is of the least importance on Earth, is of the most importance in heaven."

Anyways, I think that you really evoke that sort of meaning with your poem. Great job!

Boy have things changed since I was in here last. (Like posting a reply)

Whippoorwill well thank you! Yep, we're all children of God, some just don't know it like we do.

Welcome to Passions

To my favorite bug

Thanks from the bottom of my heart sweetie! (((((HUGS)))))

maybe_one_day I believe I've heard that story before somewhere, but I sure appreciate you bringing it to memory. It's a good one. That is the meaning I try to convey. We get so caught up in the "wordly" things we forget what's important. It's so easy to be distracted here. Thanks much for your wonderful reply, and a warm welcome to the Passions family! I hope you'll enjoy it here.
