Trials

However great our trials may be
Jesus said, "bring all to Me"
lay each burden at His feet,
in reverence and humble prayer.

Seek not vengance or harbor hate
judge not another's heart or fate,
when on our knees to God in prayer
pour out in love and seek Him there.

Older, wiser men of faith
who seek God in a secret place
know the answer He will send
on His Word they do depend

It is written for us all,
"ask and it shall be given,
seek and we shall find",
in faith and love petition God,
for guidance through hard times.

Just beautiful Marcy, with a great message.  He will take our burdens from us and lighten the load, we need only ask.  Bonnie

Marcy; This poem is glorious and I also echo everyone that the wisdom here is so well written and you give glory to God with your gift of poetry. love, Ellie

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

I know that I can always learn from those "Older, wiser men (women) of faith." I applaud all of those who have gone ahead to show us the way.  Without their example of Faith, we could have never made it this far... Thank you so much for recognizing those faithful Christians who have mentored us to trust in God's Word... Bob <><

Marcy,
  This is so full of understanding and truth--good guidance for dealing with something we all face--and you've said it so wonderfully & clearly. Thank you for this grand poetic message of guiding light to help us work through our times of darkness.  David
