God is God God is God God is good! God made everything And said that it was good! God is Love God needs love He made us free with a voice to vie Gave us a choice to love or die. God has a plan for all reality To build a big, big loving sea And so he makes each person A very smart unique part. God gives every soul a unique brain To do his will in a loving God-programmed way No two minds are ever alike Each call from God is different, not the same. God talks to each on a different gain And when we try to normalize We interfere with God so wise And cause much pain. God made music God made poetry God made the spoken word And all God made was good. God made the oceans God made the land God made mountains With His own hand. God made Angels and birds to fly God made beautiful butterflies God made a garden He named it Eden God made man He named Adam Gave man helpmate Eve. God had a seed to grow new life God made man from His own sweet seed Made woman from part of man Gave them a beautiful garden And taught man to tow His land. God gave man a beautiful mind A part of God's perfect kind Gave him a bleeding heart to choose To love or hate to win or lose. God made pleasure God made pain God made Satan To teach us about evil, give us pain make us weep. Satan wakes us up to look for love Before our final sleep As God offers love with perfect strength. God made for us an eternal home To live with Him in perfect love In the Glory of a brand new morning. God made all fruit God made all grain God made all fish God made all meat. God made all wine so fine to soothe the soul God gave us meat and bread to build us whole God made the cane and honey to sweeten our meal God made every thing for joyful souls to do and feel. God made the wars to purge the earth of man God made the floods to nourish all our land God made earthquakes to fix unstable earth God made the plenty; God made the dearth God made the morning God made the night God made everything Just right God gave us birth God gave us death God gave us life from birth to sod God is God. God gave us a spirit God gave us a mind God gave us a soul God gave us strength to know. God gave us insight God gave us light To illuminate dark, dark places With His word so bright God gave us love to show How to go God gave me a call To write poetry for all. Satan came to Eve one day To teach weak Adam God's true way Eve found selfishness in Satan's play And helped Satan lead weak Adam astray From God's true and perfect love one day. God needs perfect love From you and me As we face all sin and misery He wants us to be free To love Him voluntarily. He sent His Son Jesus Christ His very own Spirit of Love To show us how to find His way As He died on Calvary one day. Gave His blood as currency To cover all our sins and misery Gave us one commandment, love To make us whole With all our heart, mind, strength and soul. Wants us to love Him with all our being Loving everything we're seeing And to love ourselves as He is in us. As we share His love from our own soul Helping others to be completely whole. God gave us pleasure without measure And want's us to enjoy all joy and pleasure As we spread His Holy love to others Loving Him first sacrificing our selfish ways As our deep love for God overflows each day. God wants us to gladly share our godly love With all our friends and families we see Loving all our neighbors each and every day While leaving everyone's soul free his way. Just loving God as we Seek to share caring responsibility Taught by Jesus to you and me. We cannot define God He defines us through reality What you think, feel and do is the real, real you No human word can ever be our final authority. God called me to write poetry About his creation about his love To pen verses for all to see Describing all His reality. God is displeased that man rewrites His Word today Disguising truth with doctrine and religious lies Keeping man in bondage away from God's true way Closing windows to the sunshine of God sunrise. His clear love message is a simple right Christ gave us one commandment, love My yoke is easy! My burden is light So why should we accept more than said by Christ above? As we live our lives our way, day by day. God made you just the way you are today To love Him and others in His sharing way Except for love there is no other change, I say To love and worship God in your own very special way. For God is God.

I would say you just about covered it. Except for free will. God gave us that too and is grieved at how willful we are. Very nice. Joyce |

Joyce, YES! You are absolutely correct. Free Will is the key to purity and Salvation! When we use our free will to desire and follow God first with all of our heart, He leads us into purity through Love in Christ, teaching us through His Gifts of the Spirit as we seek His Love and Light through knowledge and wisdom, leading to righteous sharing of His Love with others. We are His Candles in the dark night. Thank you for reading and commenting. May God bless you abundantly. ![]() -newell Sharing God's Love through perfectlovepoetry.com Copyright: 2002 Newell Elsworth Usher [This message has been edited by Silver Streak (02-06-2002 01:51 PM).] |

Thank you floria! Yes, God is in me! And He is in you! He is in all life! But we must open the windows to our heart and let His sunshine radiate and heat us, accepting The Son, Jesus Christ, God's Spirit of Love to help us direct our life. Or He waits in our outer spiritual chamber. Knocking on our door. As our spirit slowly dies.

Yes, Betty! I am in Him and He is Me. I am completely free! We are all free when we accept God in Christ, the Spirit of Love, and Christ in God and God and Christ in us, and when we accept that we are in God and Christ. It is wonderful! It is the Kingdom of God. And we are given The Gifts of Holy Spirit to help us understand and develop wisdom. Wise Love based on God's total understanding lets us more freely and fully share True Love with our neighbors. When we try to Love in darkness, there are many snares, to make our journey very difficult. Thanks for your comment. ![]() -newell Sharing God's Love through perfectlovepoetry.com |

Silver Streak, You really covered a whole lot of ground with your poem here, but I think what spoke the loudest to me, personally, was that GOD called you to write poetry.... And after reading, I must say, "Yes, indeed, GOD certainly has!" Again, thank you for sharing the Divine inspiration that GOD has given to you to write. -Bob |

Thank you, Bob. Yes, indeed, God has called me to write poetry. And that is now my entire life. I even purchased a a little stilt house on a half acre of natural habitat in the forest, equipped with a few things and cable internet, to work. We named it Paradise. It is dedicated to God and serves as a poetry headquarters. My sister, Anita maintains our website, www.perfectlovepoetry.com from her Oklahoma home. Together we serve God in this ministry, guided by the Holy Spirit. ![]() -newell Sharing God's Love through perfectlovepoetry.com Copyright: 2002 Newell Elsworth Usher [This message has been edited by Silver Streak (02-12-2002 06:27 PM).] |

Eliza, why not today? All you need do is to release all of your concerns, cares, worries, pain, sorrow, and frustrations to Him, repenting your soul. And open you heart, mind and soul to Love. It's free. You need make no promises, just accept Love and Peace and Joy in your heart and pass it on. That's all. Why not do it now? ![]() -newell Sharing God's Love through perfectlovepoetry.com Copyright: 2002 Newell Elsworth Usher [This message has been edited by Silver Streak (02-13-2002 01:39 PM).] |
