L ord, You seem so far away in E verything we do. Always going our own way; never P raying for your will O nly you can help us F ind our way throughout life's turns. F ighting our battles; A nswering our calls; I f only we would listen, and T rust Your loving, H ealing hands. -Sheila Phillips |

Dear Sheila: Beautifully done acrostic. That is surely what it takes too, a leap of faith. Thank you! Ellie Summers haunting melody that awakens the butterflies, calling them to join the dance in their silent song of praise to God. eL |

I love this! You are such a talented poet. This was the perfect reminder to put all of our concerns in God's hands..thank you, I needed this today! God Bless and Keep Smiling Those who hope 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 |

...thought I'd write you a little poem in reply... GOD OF GRACE G reat are Your healing hands, O h, God of Love and Forgiveness, D oing Your perfect will in my life... O nly I took that first "Leap of F aith" and You made my life Yours G uiding my footsteps thereafter, R edeeming my soul from Hell, A nd promising me Eternal Life, C hrist the Savior of my soul E xalted above all creation. Love in Christ, Bob <>< |

LighthouseBob, What a wonderful reply!! And amazing what a God of grace he is when we take that leap of faith! I am ashamed that I don't let Him lead me the way I should... Thank you, everyone, for such undeserved praise. If I may, ask for your prayer, for stregnth to live my life with leaps of faith; I fail so often. God bless you all. |

So very nicely written, and it sounds like you're already doing what it takes to follow our Lord, that is, yearning to do it. We all fail, but that's the beauty of having Christian friends to lift, forgive and inspire us so we get back on track. this forum is a family of such friends. Rae |
