I was on the edge Of disaster, When the light From your beacon, Illuminated me, Tugging me back From my despair, Warming my heart To possibilities Not considered moments before. The beacon was your love, Drawing me to my senses, Reminding me someone cared, That I was not alone, You were by my side, My friend, My peace, An anchor in a troubled storm, My hope, My deliverance. Thank you Dear Lord For thy tender mercies, Extended to one as unworthy as me. |

Dear Bro; I love the humility and surrender to our Lord and the wonderful free verse that you used to make this flow. Your heart is so real and true in this prayer that is so inspiring. Wonderful! Your faith shines here like a beacon! Love, Sis Summers haunting melody that awakens the butterflies, calling them to join the dance in their silent song of praise to God. eL |

So many people pray FOR something...too few remember to give thanks afterwards. This was well done! Karilea When you want to be loved, look within...KRJ |

Dennis, This poem touched me. I have wrestled with certain things lately that your words addressed. The Spirit of God does minister through heart-felt words. Keep up the good work. This seemed to me to be quite in the spirit of the psalms of the bible. They are so personal poigniant and real, yet beautiful also in a literary way. Thank you. Know it or not you are a "son of David". |

This is really heartwarming Dennis! You've written a great reminder that He's always there for us. That He always leaves the door open for a way out. Truly a great poem indeed! <*\\\>< The will of God will never lead you, where the grace of God cannot keep you. |
