LIONS & LAMBS Lord Jesus, teach me to turn contempt into concern, curses into kisses, hate into love, a lion into a lamb... Yes, Jesus, it is true that deep inside my heart I harbor hate and greed, there is no real peace, my lion stalks my lamb... Please show me, Lord, how I can teach my lamb to put my lion on the leash of love and true humility. Amen... by Willem |

Dear Willem; I love the analogy here to depict the eternal struggle of good versus evil. You are right that only Jesus can win the battle for us. Great poem! I want to thank you for your lovely reply to my poem and thanks to your beautiful bride too! 02 |

Willem, this is a wonderful poem,with a beautiful message and sentiment... "contempt into concern, curses into kisses,"... I love those lines...very nice. take care, janet marie Some things cannot be explained by verses that rhyme, They are not measured by the commitment of time. Some emotions run too deep to be described by words, Forgiveness and understanding- remain the most beautiful words ever heard. Janet Marie |

I absolutely love this! WOW! I can relate to this so well! I just love it, my favorite I think!  <*\\\>< When you can't make up your mind Which way is right for you, Stop and softly ask yourself, What Would Jesus Do? |
