Is it just an illusion?
Is it there within my grasp?
Is it really fathomable?
This is what I ask.

That God should love me daily
That He would die for me
That God's own Son would pay the price
To set this captive free.

That God would listen to me
And gladly take the time
To hear my pleas and my concerns
To settle down my life.

It is no illusion
It's there within my grasp
God's love is true for me and you
You only have to ask.

Jesus lives in my heart!

It is very hard to fathom all that is within our grasp when we are so richly blessed. I like this poem a whole lot because it touches on how amazingly good our Father truly is to us each day that we live. (Amen)

Your writing presented in this forum is anything but 'amateurish' You are truly a pleasure to read.

I just wanted to say thank you to you all for your kind words.  I really enjoy writing poetry, especially about my faith in God.  Your words are very kind and encouraging.  It makes me want to write more.

(smiles) God Bless You, sweet friend, He is devoted to us entirely and as long as we look to Him, He will always answer us when we wish for His shoulder! (kiss on cheek) He always has our backs, sweet friend, this is enlightening, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Sheri, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

And that's the most wonderful thing about creating. It will always be a mystery.
