Do we ever really
know,
what's in anothers
heart,
if we but only see
the exterior of a
man?

Could we possibly
begin to guess
Gods plan
for such a one?

For a mighty warriors
soul
might lurk beneath
a homeless one,
and His plan to bring
our hearts
to heights of generosity.

Or a one who is full
of hatred and didain,
is but the morrow
to be touched,
and healed by Gods
own Hand.

Let us then be
mindful,
of our own inner
man.

For only God and i
walk this narrow
road.
Tis our hearts
we must be
mindful of,
all else be left
to God.


Belief is a truth held in the mind; faith is a fire in the heart.

Joseph Fort Newton

My first visit to Spiritual Journeys, and first poem I read in here....I love it and plan to save it in my library, because it has such persoal meaning for me, as the church I was raised in is so quick to judge it's members. Your poem is so full of m own feelings. Just what I needed at this time.  Thank you.

ellie,

Wonderful message my friend.  We must accept ourselves for others to accept us.  Well done.

I know it's strange... Your poem reminds me of all the pretty covers people like to put on their Bibles, but it's what is in the inside that really counts.  God Bless You, Bob <><
