No Friend Like Him


Alone on a pew she sits
hands rest on her lap, a bible too
her heart beats at a rapid pace
while beads of sweat touch her expressionless face


Sounds of music begin to flow, perfect harmony
to pierce her very soul
tears drop like rain, releasing her pain
her wounded heart needing a fresh start

Peace floods her soul, as words of his love are told
slowly a smile touches her face ...

no one is a friend like Jesus

BloomingRose,
  ..yes, you have captured the moment so well, many a moment actually (for me). Job well done and I liked it very much.  Marcy

You give us a very touching scene of one who is able and receptive to be touched & blessed bythe greatest friend of all.  Very nice!

Rose; Lovely! Like Marcy, I too have been in that pew, and I thank Him for always being my best friend in all the world and beyond.

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

Thanks you all. I think we have all had that seat on the pew, and I thank God for it. Without his call, none would come.

I know I've been in that seat. And cried those tears, and felt that peace!
No other like it!

Wonderfully done BR!

It's funny how one can be witnessing to another about the Lord and their face appears so expressionless, yet His word goes beneith the facade and into the heart... His Word is so far reaching. What a compelling story of a church attending lady being genuinely touched by the Word of God.  I can just see her sitting there so proper with Blble and hands in lap.  God Bless You, Bob <><

Deb, you have a gift, I hope we see it often, here, and in other areas of Passions!  Well done, and a belated Welcome!
