The heavens show your glory The seas resound your power Your gentleness is shown us In petals of a flower Thunder emanates your voice And you cleanse us as the rain Done it all you have in love On a cross, you hung in pain And you did it all by choice Love is what had held you there Miracles weren't used to help You suffered to draw us near As the skies turned to blackness And the earth started to quake It's then you gave your spirit All done for your children's sake You're strong but yet you're loving You've endured all we go through A most compassionate God Who's given us life anew If even for a moment We could comprehend your love The height, width and depth of it We would know complete, true love I know that you get angry But your love out weighs it all For you are so forgiving When we stumble and we fall |

Beck, This so awesome and incredibly beautiful! Why didn't you mark it for the book? Please go back and do that. This is too powerful and inspiring not to be in the book. Love, Ellie "Your gentleness is shown us in petals of a flower". I love this line! Summers haunting melody that awakens the butterflies, calling them to join the dance in their silent song of praise to God. ellie LeJeune |

You've explored all corners of our understanding to show the awesomeness of our God. Absolutely beautiful! I, too, would like this to be a book submission. |

How one so unworthy as I could even begin to be loved by such an awesome God is beyond me, but His love does surpass all understanding. I especially liked the part, "And you did it all by choice Love is what had held you there" Isn't His Love Amazing!?!?! |

Thank you Serenity! Ellie thank you so much!! I didn't mark this for the book because I have a few going already. Heck if I post everything I have for the book, then what will I post next time  Thank you DA! I think I'll wait for the next one to come around thank you Bob thank you! It is winning someone over to Christ that covers a mulitude of sin I'm glad you could be reminded.Your so right Sunshine. It sure is beyond our comprehension. Mom thank you! I did try to get that across, and I'm glad if I did. Pasqually it sure is! We are all unworthy, but thank God for His grace Thank you!LoveBug thank you for taking the time to read and reply |

Just as your nature is, so are your poems. Gentle, poised and well taken care of. A great anthem to God's greatness. A true friend to people and a true friend to God. Sheri. /¯¯\ /¯¯\ | ¥ | sheriliegh@sprint.ca \ Sheri / \Rob / Created by: Muad'dib \ / \/ |

WhtDove, Great poem! Loved it! To really comprehend His love. What a great thought. "As the skies turned to blackness And the earth started to quake It's then you gave your spirit All done for your children's sake" |
