I prayed to Him
for courage and strength
to keep this flame burning
for forever and eternity
His Holy Spirit washed over me
and tears streamed down my face
I smiled through the praise
and lifted my hands high
Lord, Oh, you're so glorious
you are holy
and I felt couragous
and strong
capable of anything
with Jesus by my side
I knew no problem
was to big
or small
for Him
I was on fire
for Jesus
and I still am
and will be
until I see His
glorious face

~Stacey

This isn't much of a poem, more of an outpour of feelings.  I still felt that it should be written and shared!  



"Of all those arts in which the wise excel,
Nature's chief masterpiece is writing well."
~Essay on Poetry, John Sheffield

"Those who trust in the Lord will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; run and not grow weary, walk and not be faint."
~Isaiah 40:3

Stacey; Your heart is so overflowing with His love and you put it so wonderfully here.
Thank you! ellie

Summers haunting melody
that awakens
the butterflies,
calling them to join
the dance
in their silent song
of praise to God.
